Summary
Barriers hinder collaboration between PhD- and DNP-prepared nurses in oncology. Strategies were developed to improve this partnership, enhancing patient care, education, and research in cancer nursing.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Science
- Oncology Nursing
- Healthcare Collaboration
Background:
- PhD-prepared nurses offer research expertise, while DNP-prepared nurses provide clinical insights.
- Effective collaboration between PhD and DNP nurses can translate research into practice.
- Barriers currently impede the optimal collaboration between PhD- and DNP-prepared nurses.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the reasons for inconsistent collaboration between PhD- and DNP-prepared nurses in cancer care.
- To identify strategies for enhancing PhD-DNP collaboration within oncology nursing.
- To understand the "why" and "how" of PhD-DNP collaboration challenges.
Main Methods:
- A think tank was convened by the Oncology Nursing Society (ONS) with PhD and DNP participants.
- An abstraction laddering exercise was used to analyze a challenge statement on PhD-DNP collaboration.
- Qualitative data from the think tank explored barriers and opportunities in oncology nursing.
Main Results:
- The PhD-DNP Think Tank identified key barriers and opportunities for collaboration.
- Strategies were developed to foster a collaborative culture between PhD- and DNP-prepared nurses.
- Findings highlight the potential to improve patient care, education, and research in oncology.
Conclusions:
- Improved collaboration between PhD- and DNP-prepared nurses is crucial for advancing oncology nursing.
- The developed strategies offer a roadmap for organizations to enhance PhD-DNP partnerships.
- Fostering collaboration will ultimately benefit patient outcomes, nursing education, and research endeavors.

Gap Junctions
57.2K
Multicellular organisms employ a variety of ways for cells to communicate with each other. Gap junctions are specialized proteins that form pores between neighboring cells in animals, connecting the cytoplasm between the two, and allowing for the exchange of molecules and ions. They are found in a wide range of invertebrate and vertebrate species, mediate numerous functions including cell differentiation and development, and are associated with numerous human diseases, including cardiac and...

Gap Junctions
9.6K
The cytoplasm of adjacent animal cells can exchange small molecules, ions, and secondary messengers via the communication channels which form the gap junctions. These junctions comprise a few hundred to thousands of molecular channels, each made of two halves, called the connexon hemichannel. A connexon is a hexamer of six transmembrane connexin proteins, which assemble radially, thus forming a pore or channel in the center. One connexon hemichannel docks with a corresponding connexon on the...

Close Relationships and Culture
243
Culture shapes how people approach attraction, choose partners, and build long-term relationships. While some preferences in mate selection appear consistent across cultures, such as men valuing physical attractiveness and women emphasizing financial resources, cultural contexts influence how these preferences are expressed and prioritized. Marriage extends beyond romantic ideals in many societies and is deeply embedded in social, economic, and religious frameworks.The Role of Culture in Mate...

Friendship formation is a dynamic process shaped by psychological, cultural, and social factors. Friendships play a crucial role in emotional well-being, social development, and personal identity from childhood to adulthood.Childhood and Early FriendshipsFriendships in childhood often arise due to shared environments, such as school or neighborhood interactions. At this stage, proximity and common interests serve as the primary basis for connection. As children grow, their friendships evolve...

Characteristics of Practical Op Amps
870
A difference amplifier, a crucial component in numerous electronic devices, ideally amplifies only the difference-mode signal, which is the difference between two input signals. However, in practical circuits, the output voltage depends on both the differential gain and the common-mode gain.
The ratio of differential gain to the common-mode gain is defined as the common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR). This ratio quantifies the ability of operational amplifiers (op-amps) to reject common-mode...
