Católica hosts 9th European Oncology Nursing Society Research Proposal Workshop

For three days, the Faculty of Health Sciences and Nursing and the School of Nursing hosted the 9th Research Proposal Workshop, organised by the European Oncology Nursing Society. The event was organised by Susana Miguel and brought together an international group of participants and experts dedicated to research in oncology nursing.

The workshop was attended by six participants from different European countries, reflecting the international dimension of the initiative. The organising team also included Zeynep Karakus, a lecturer at Akdeniz University Faculty of Nursing, and Sara Colomer, from UNIL - Université de Lausanne.

Two PhD students in Nursing from Católica - one from the Lisbon School and the other from the Porto School - were also present and had the opportunity to actively participate in the discussion of the projects underway. Mara Freitas, Director of Católica's Bioethics Institute, was invited to contribute her experience in the area of ethics, a central theme in the development of research projects.

During the workshop, participants were able to share and critically discuss the various steps of the research project, in a collaborative environment of high scientific quality. The initiative reinforces the commitment of the FCSE and the School of Nursing to promoting research and advanced training in Nursing at European level.
