Brenda Zierler, RN, PhD, a leading researcher in improving the quality and safety of patient care, has been selected as a 2008 Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Executive Nurse Fellow. Zierler, associate professor and associate dean of Technology Innovations in Education and Research at the University of Washington School of Nursing, is one of 20 nurses in executive leadership roles nationwide chosen for the fellowship.

Zierler will facilitate an interprofessional team approach to education in patient safety and quality improvement by creating the infrastructure that supports simulation-based team training for health professional students at the UW.
