From Question to Impact: A Nurse’s Journey Along the Cascade of Research
Thursday 7 August, Pullman Melbourne on the Park
ASHM is pleased to partner with the Australasian Hepatology Association to present this warm and engaging breakfast session designed exclusively for nurses at all stages of their research journey.
This interactive and conversational panel will spotlight three nurses working across different points of the nursing research spectrum: one reflecting on lessons learned throughout her career in research, another navigating the early stages of formulating a research question and seeking funding, and a third sharing insights on dissemination and translating research into practice.
Whether you're curious about getting started, looking to build momentum, or wondering how to make your findings count, this session offers an open, supportive space to connect, learn, and reflect with fellow nurses. Come for the breakfast, stay for the inspiration.
Date: Thursday 7 August 2025
Time: 7:45am – 8:45am
Location: Pullman Melbourne on the Park
Cost: Free
