PhD student awarded place to present at Bloomberg Emerging Scholars Forum

PhD student, Kennedy Nkhoma, has been awarded a funded place to present at the Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing Emerging Scholars Forum in October.

The Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing Emerging Scholars Forum supports early career development and international networking of emerging nursing scholars who are embarking on their research career. The Emerging Scholars Forum brings together the next generation of leading nurse scientists to share their research in a setting which promotes critical networking and an opportunity to advance nursing science. 

This is an invitation-only forum with successful applicants being selected via a peer review process. As part of the invitation, Kennedy will have the opportunity to present his doctoral research – “An educational intervention to reduce pain and improve pain management for Malawian people living with HIV/AIDS and their family carer: a randomised controlled trial” - to peers and the Faculty. This is a huge achievement for Kennedy and the School. PhD student Tim Carter was a recipient last year.
