2025 RIIG Calls for Award Nominations

Belonging to a Midwest Nursing Research Society (MNRS) Research & Implementation Interest Group (RIIG) is a remarkable way to network, find and provide mentorship, meet research collaborators, partner in research and implementation, hone your leadership skills, grow as a professional, and develop your potential. Another benefit of RIIG membership is access to apply for RIIG Awards. While the RIIG Awards do not take the place of other awards given by the MNRS as an organization, these awards are designed to recognize members of each RIIG who are in different stages of their careers.

ALL 2025 RIIG Award nominations will be accepted from October 15, 2024, until December 11, 2024, at 5:00 PM Eastern Time.
