Inaugural International Neuroscience Nursing Research Symposium

The inaugural INNRS was held in August 2017 on the UT Southwestern Medical Center campus. What started as a half-day forum covering the latest research topics, the symposium has grown to a two-day conference hosting some of the world's foremost experts in neuroscience nursing research. Our partnership with the American Association of Neuroscience Nurses continues to attract international and national front-runners presenting the latest neuro-related nursing research.
