What an incredible #AACNfall24! We’re grateful for the dedication and passion of our member schools, who continue to inspire us through their commitment to advancing nursing education, research, and leadership. This year’s conference offered valuable and thought-provoking insights. Dr. Timothy Chou explored the exciting possibilities at the intersection of AI, technology, and healthcare; Dr. Mary Woolley shared her insights on research advocacy and the mentorship of early-career researchers; and Daniel Pink inspired us with strategies to turn regret into a tool for better decision-making and personal growth. And as always, our member deans and directors had the chance to connect, collaborate, and strategize ways to move the needle forward through like-school discussions, which fostered rich dialogue across institution types, and insightful emerging solutions sessions. We’re looking forward to continuing the important work sparked here, and can’t wait to see you at next year’s conference to be held November 1-3, 2025! #AACNconvenes
