Why Attend the NightinGala

The FNINR NightinGala offers your organization or institution a unique opportunity to maximize your advertising and marketing budget while supporting the work of NINR and nurse scientists. Through the efforts of NINR, the important work that nurse researchers do is underscored by scientifically valid findings that inform nursing practice. Because of nursing research, there is increased respect for the nursing profession as well as global recognition of the importance of nursing in managing the health and well-being of individuals. You're invited to invest in a stronger future for nursing research and education by supporting the 2025 NightinGala!
