Lorraine C. Mion, PhD, RN, FAAN, of The Ohio State University College of Nursing, was inducted into the Researcher Hall of Fame of the Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI), at STTI’s 28th International Nursing Research Congress in Dublin, Ireland, on Saturday, July 29 2017. Mion and 22 other nurse researchers, representing Australia, Canada, Finland, Taiwan, the United Kingdom and the United States, were inducted and presented with the International Nurse Researcher Hall of Fame Award. Mion is a research professor and interim director of the Center of Excellence in Critical and Complex Care at Ohio State.
Created in 2010, the International Nurse Researcher Hall of Fame recognizes nurse researchers who have achieved significant and sustained national or international recognition and whose research has improved the profession and the people it serves. The honorees’ research projects will be shared through STTI’s Virginia Henderson Global Nursing e-Repository, enabling nurses everywhere to benefit from their discoveries and insights. The award presentation is sponsored by Wiley.
“Congratulations to these 23 individuals for their incredible combined contribution to global health and the future of nursing,” said STTI President Cathy Catrambone, PhD, RN, FAAN. “I look forward to learning more about their personal stories and achievements and to seeing how their work inspires other researchers.”
