As part of its mission to honor the work of nurses on behalf of patients and their families, the DAISY (Diseases Attacking the Immune System) Foundation is accepting grant applications from nurses researching ways to improve the treatment of patients with autoimmune diseases and cancer.

The foundation's J. Patrick Barnes Grants for Nursing Research and Evidence-Based Practice Projects program offers two types of research grants.
Evidence-based practice grants of up to $2,000 will be awarded to stimulate the use of patient-focused data and/or previously generated research findings to develop, implement, and evaluate changes in nursing practice in treatment of patients with cancer and autoimmune diseases.
Research grants of up to $5,000 are available to qualified nurses carrying out clinical research studies that directly benefit patients and/or families involving treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases.
Grant recipients in both program areas also will have the opportunity to apply for subsequent funding of $2,000 to share their findings at professional conferences through the DAISY Foundation's Lynne Doll Grants for Dissemination of Findings program.
To be eligible, an applicant must be a registered nurse with a current license. Research must impact patients or family members of patients with an autoimmune disease or cancer. Studies that will benefit patients both within and outside a nurse's institution will receive priority. Award checks will be made to an investigator's institution or a specified fund at the institution, not the individual investigator.
Visit the DAISY Foundation Web site for complete program guidelines and application procedures.
