Welcome NRIG members,
On behalf of the Nursing Research Interest Group executive committee, we are excited to extend our best wishes for an exceptional year in both your personal and professional lives for 2025. It is an honor to serve this interest group, sharing and championing the exceptional work by nurse researchers in Ontario.
NRIG strives to support and advocate for nursing research as well as research funding opportunities for novice and experienced nurse researchers in Ontario. We are committed to championing nursing research by providing vital support through scholarships and grants, empowering nurses to advance their work and impact. Scholarship and grant information can be found on our website NRIG.ca.
Our mission is to promote the understanding, conduct and uptake of nursing research through collaboration, funding, education, networking, and lobbying to improve the health of individuals and families in Ontario.
We believe NRIG can play pivotal role in empowering nurse researchers, fostering collaboration across organizations and institutions, and creating a research community in the province. We aim to attract student and professional members, across the RN scope of practice.
NRIG is dedicated to fostering meaningful networking opportunities by hosting monthly webinars that cover fascinating nursing research topics, presented by exceptional nurse researchers from our bright communities. If you would like to present your research or recruit participants click here.
