Symposium Dates: Nov. 6-7

the 16th Annual Call for Abstracts has now closed.

Back at the Delta Hotel Marriott in So. Burlington, Vermont November 6-7, abstracts have now been reviewed and we’re about to announce the 16th Annual lineup! Over the years, hundreds of nurses have become empowered by sharing and presenting their research at the annual event. Responses to the Call for Abstracts greatly vary in terms of content and represent the breadth of research opportunities within the nursing profession. Stay tuned for further updates as results of the review unfold. Registration for the 16th Annual Symposium will open late August.

Novice to expert, this regional venue provides a platform for nurses - to present and showcase their research, EPB and QI projects.

 
“I remember my first poster at an early-beginning Symposium. I was so very nervous, yet so very honored to be among peers whose work I admired. Over the years, the NREBPS has become an integral mentoring venue for nurses involved in research throughout New York and New England.”

Workshop #1: The Art of Analysis: Practical Approaches to Qualitative Research in Nursing
