It is well documented that nurses occupy a unique and valuable position at the intersection of environmental health and health care (IOM, 1995; NINR, 1997; EHP, 2001). Nurses interact with individuals of all ages and from all walks of life. They are in people's homes, schools, workplaces, hospitals, clinics, and communities. The purpose of this session is to highlight the contributions nurses make to environmental health science research and to enumerate key strategies for advancing the field. Presenters will briefly highlight their research in environmental health sciences before addressing professional strategies that have worked well for them. Particular emphasis will be given to the development and use of multidisciplinary teams to pursue their research questions. | |||
