Nursing Science Past & Present:
AIs Impact on Research, Practice & Education
Join us to explore the changes in patient care driven by the introduction of new medical innovations, academic nurses worked both to develop science-based nursing practice and to secure their roles within the post-war research university.
By their efforts, academic nurses transformed nursing’s labor into a valuable site of knowledge production and demonstrated how application of this knowledge was integral to improving patient outcomes and healthcare delivery.
