Highlighting the Publications of Our Nurses

Posted on by

The Department of Nursing at MSK is well recognized for its excellence in evidence-based, compassionate, patient care. In celebration of National Nurses Week, we’d like to highlight our nurses and their contributions to advancing both cancer and nursing scholarship. Through the Synapse Nursing Group, we collect and display our nurses’ works. In 2021, they contributed to 157 publications, including research articles, conference presentations, reviews, and editorials.

We also have a group specifically for Advanced Practice Providers, tracking the publications of our Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants, and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists. Click on the “works” section of each group to view their publications and join us in thanking our nurse’s for all they do at MSK.
