The DAISY Foundation is encouraging nurses seeking to improve treatment of patients with autoimmune diseases and cancer to apply for a research or evidence-based practice project grant awarded by the foundation. The deadline is April 2 to submit a letter of intent for the J. Patrick Barnes Research Grant.
The foundation offers two types of grants: research grants of up to $5,000 for projects that involve clinical research studies that directly benefit patients or families, and evidence-based practice grants of up to $2,000 that use patient-focused data to study and develop improved nursing practices.
For the first time this year, successful applicants also will be allowed to apply for subsequent funding to share their findings at professional conferences. This funding will provide grantees with up to $2,000 for expenses and fees for attending or presenting at a professional conference.
Additional information and the grant applications are available at DAISYfoundation.org.
