Five faculty members selected for Fellowship in the AAN

I am absolutely thrilled to announce that five members of our faculty have been selected for fellowship in the American Academy of Nursing (AAN)! Please join me in congratulating:

Dr. Maureen George
Dr. Nancy Hanrahan
Dr. Marilyn Stringer
Dr. Cindy Connolly
Dr. Barbra Mann Wall

As you know, the American Academy of Nursing is nursing’s premier national organization. Its role is to advance health policy and practice through the generation, synthesis, and dissemination of nursing knowledge. These five faculty members join more than 1,500 leaders in education, management, practice, and research worldwide. Most importantly, they join 35 other members of our current faculty who are Academy Fellows. We are so pleased that now a full 69% of our standing faculty are members of the Academy, more than any other school of nursing.

Congratulations to each of our new Fellows! We look forward to celebrating this great acknowledgement of their professional achievement at the Penn Nursing reception at the AAN meeting on Saturday, November 13, 2010 in Washington, DC.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank those of you who mentored, nominated, supported, and advised our latest cohort of Fellows to this successful conclusion.
