The Minnesota Center for Health Trajectory Research, funded by the
National Institute of Nursing Research, supports interventions that promote,
maintain and restore health from infancy to old age. The goal is to influence
the trajectory or pathway that individuals and/or families experience with
developmental, transitional, acute or chronic health challenges in order to
influences optimal health outcomes across the lifespan. Each year the Center
supports pilot projects and research seminars related to the theme.
The Center's aims are:
-
Building capacity of scientists in nursing and other health disciplines who
can conduct research related to interventions that promote positive health
outcomes of individuals and families experiencing developmental, acute, or
chronic health challenges;
-
Support the development and pilot-testing of research protocols that will
lead to applications for extramural support of larger intervention studies
designed to improve health trajectories of individuals and/or families
across the life span;
-
Strengthen collaboration among scientists in nursing and other health
care disciplines for conducting intervention and other health trajectory
research;
-
Disseminate research findings to the scientific community, undergraduate
and graduate students, nurses and other health care providers, policy
makers, consumers, and other relevant lay audiences.
