I am delighted to announce that the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing has risen to 2nd in NIH rankings. This is based on NIH funding to Schools of Nursing for FY08 (based on federal fiscal year of 10/1/07 – 9/30/08). Our funding increased 12% from FY07 to FY08.
This is fantastic news for our School and is a reflection of the excellence of our faculty and the leadership of Dr. Linda McCauley, associate dean for nursing research, and the staff in the Office of Nursing Research.
I would like to extend my deepest appreciation on behalf of our entire community for the incredible scholarship and dedication of each and every one of our faculty, our research centers, and to Linda and her staff for all they have done to facilitate this substantial move up in our funding. Without their efforts, perseverance and exemplary research projects, this would not be achievable.
