Capital District Nursing Research Alliance
Welcome to the Capital District Nursing Research Alliance, Inc. (CDNRA) website. The CDNRA has been in operation for over 14 years. It was conceived as an organization to provide support to nurses who are interested in evidence-based practice (EBP) and nursing research. We provide opportunities for nurses in the capital region of New York State to network, learn about current research projects, to learn skills associated with nursing scholarship and EBP, and to participate in multi-site research studies. We meet monthly, face to face; however people can participate by telephone. We welcome nurses who are interested in nursing research and evidence-based practice.
