RESEARCH INTEREST GROUPS
Research Interest Groups: Networking & Collaboration
The TSNRP Research Interest Groups (RIGs) meet online to present operational research and evidence-based practice projects, mentor junior officers and novice researchers, and share information and resources useful to military nurses and researchers. If you're interested in Evidence-Based Practice and collaborating with other military nurses, these are a great way to learn and meet colleagues across service branches. Plus, you can earn contact hours by attending live or watching RIG Meeting replays. Join your desired RIG below to receive login details for RIG meetings or click Learn More to find meeting replays.
