The Nursing Informatics Congress has a long tradition of fostering the development of informatics students as scholars. To this end, NI 2006 announces a CALL for PAPERS and POSTERS to be submitted by students currently enrolled at any level of nursing education. The Student Award Committee reviews all papers and posters submitted by students and an award is given for the Best Paper and for the Best Poster.

The Student Award Committee also judges the student's presentation of their papers and posters at the NI 2006 Congress. The committee consists of nurses and educators from a variety of countries throughout the world.

Please consider submitting a paper or poster for this exciting NI 2006 Congress. Please make sure your paper or poster is clearly marked as a STUDENT. We would like to highly encourage all students to submit and enjoy this opportunity to meet nursing informatics colleagues and start your career in the field of nursing informatics.
