Research Model

Research and scholarship by faculty and staff in the College of Nursing focuses on cutting-edge design and methodologies that promote health equity, population wellness, quality of life and health policy. Within an interconnected process that flows between research, discovery, translation and evidence, the faculty value innovation, team science, community engagement and understanding social drivers of health. Through these lenses, we work with underserved Appalachia populations across the lifespan to advance biobehavioral sciences, health services and policy research and by advancing health care delivery.
