PCORI Funding Announcement: Pilot Projects Grants

It is with great excitement that we share with you a funding announcement from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI), which was established with the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). The purpose of this call for proposals is to further develop and enhance national research priorities for patient-centered care, collect preliminary data that can be used to advance the field of patient-centered outcomes research, and identify methodologies that can be used to advance patient-centered outcomes research as well as identify gaps where methodological research needs further development.

We would also like to note that INQRI grantee, Dr. Robin Newhouse, is a member of the Methodology committee for PCORI.

INQRI's 5th Call for Proposals - Released TODAY

Over the past four years INQRI has awarded grants to 34 teams that have focused on establishing linkages between nursing and the quality of care delivered to people within and across a variety of health care settings. This year we turn our attention to another core dimension of INQRI’s mission—the translation of knowledge to achieve a direct impact on the care of the people served by nurses.
