This 25th anniversary edition of the Annual Review of Nursing Research is focused on nursing science in vulnerable populations. Identified as a priority in the nursing discipline, vulnerable populations are discussed in terms of the development of nursing science, diverse approaches in building the state of the science research, integrating biologic methods in the research, and research in reducing health disparities.
Topics include:
Measurement issuesPrevention of infectious diseases among vulnerable populationsGenomics and proteomics methodologies for researchPromoting culturally appropriate interventionsCommunity-academic research partnerships with vulnerable populationsVulnerable populations in Thailand: women living with HIV/AIDS
As in all volumes of the Annual Reviews, leading nurse researchers provide students, other researchers, and clinicians with the foundations for evidence-based practice and further research.
