CIHR Planning and Dissemination Grant - Strengthening the Canadian Oncology Nursing Workforce to Support the Acceleration of Genomics-Informed Oncology Health Services.
We acknowledge the support of the Canadian Institute for Health Research for this project. This planning and dissemination grant enabled a collaborative process with oncology nurses and members of the interdisciplinary team to develop the position statement, the creation of the CANO/ACIO Special Interest Group for Nursing and Genomics, and education and supports for the integration of genomics into practice.
