Research: the bridge to collaboration.
A faculty-staff research fair was used by a school of nursing and university hospital at a large Southern medical center as a way of promoting collaboration between nursing education and service. The end results were these: a nurse-theorist "room" in the school of nursing; development of collaborative studies; subsequent presentation of posters originally prepared for the fair at 12 local, 13 state, six regional, and three national meetings. The overwhelming positive response by participants verified that research could serve as a natural bridge to promote collaboration between research, education, and service.
