Research Institute

The purpose of the Research Institute is to formulate and test NSM-derived middle range theories. Researchers are invited to work collaboratively in groups focused on populations, middle range theory concepts, NSM concepts, or methodologies. Scholarly work is concentrated on integrated reviews of the NSM-based literature to identify gaps in knowledge, as well as original multi-site research projects. Funded fellowships are available on a competitive basis. Please contact Dr. Eileen Gigliotti for further information regarding the Research Institute at egigliotti@mail.si.rr.com

Neuman Systems Model Institute Awards

The aim of the Neuman Systems Model Institute is to further the development of the NSM as a research model. To facilitate this aim, the NSM Institute is funding two awards named in honor of two past NSM Trustees: Dr. Patricia Chadwick and Dr. John Crawford.

·        The Patricia Chadwick NSM Research Grant is a $1000 biennial award. Its purpose is to support a novice researcher whose work will lead to the development of new nursing knowledge framed within the NSM.

·        The John Crawford NSM Research Fellow Award funds up to 5 biennial $100 awards. The purpose of this award is to recognize an outstanding contribution to use of the NSM as a research model.

Details of each award are provided in the links below. Please note that award recipients are expected to present their work at the next Neuman Systems Model Symposium.

Details will be available elsewhere on the NSM website shortly.
