title: Clinical research and the culture of collaboration.
abstract: This article aims to share some of the strategies and principles that facilitated the completion of an experimental research project undertaken at the Liverpool Health Service (formerly Liverpool Hospital) in the South West of Sydney. The experience demonstrated the interdependence of the academic and clinical nurse practitioners undertaking the project. A collaborative approach to nursing research in which complementarity of participants is recognised and valued is recommended.
