The American Nurses Foundation (ANF) grant program has been successful in funding nurse researchers' initial research studies for nearly 60 years. (ANF, 2013). From 1955-2012, over 1,000 ANF scholars have been identified through this historical nursing research study. Over the years, obtaining an ANF grant has become increasingly competitive for scholars. The environment supportive of research is evident from the schools that are the top recipients of grants. The ANF has a proud legacy of scholars who have and continue to make contributions to the advancement of nursing science. The paths forged by the ANF scholars illustrate the significant role that small grant programs play in the evolvement of nursing research and the expansion of nursing science.

Guest Acceptors with Lower Electrostatic Potential in Ternary Organic Solar Cells for Minimizing Voltage Losses.
Adv Mater
June 2024
Zhejiang Engineering Research Center for Energy Optoelectronic Materials and Devices, Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Ningbo, 315201, China.
Article Synopsis
- * Researchers designed and synthesized three guest components (ANF-1, ANF-2, ANF-3) with varying electrostatic potentials to investigate their impact on a specific host system (D18:N3).
- * Findings suggest that a larger electrostatic potential difference between the guest and host improves intermolecular interactions, increases luminescent efficiency, and reduces voltage loss, which is crucial for achieving high efficiency in OSCs.

Article Synopsis
- Protein fermentation is becoming popular due to its cost-effectiveness and links to lower risks of diet-related diseases, along with improved nutritional properties.
- Recent studies highlight that fermented proteins have lower antinutritional factors, better digestibility, and increased health benefits like antioxidant activity and antihypertensive effects.
- Overall, fermentation enhances food preservation and creates functional products that promote consumer health and nutrition.
Multifunctional Thermally Conductive Composite Films Based on Fungal Tree-like Heterostructured Silver Nanowires@Boron Nitride Nanosheets and Aramid Nanofibers.
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl
January 2023
Shaanxi Key Laboratory of Macromolecular Science and Technology, School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi'an, Shaanxi, 710072, P. R. China.
Thermal conduction for electronic equipment has grown in importance in light of the burgeoning of 5G communication. It is imperatively desired to design highly thermally conductive fillers and polymer composite films with prominent Joule heating characteristics and extensive mechanical properties. In this work, "solvothermal & in situ growth" method is carried out to prepare "Fungal tree"-like hetero-structured silver nanowires@boron nitride nanosheet (AgNWs@BNNS) thermally conductive fillers.

Pharmacoeconomics
March 2022
Escola Nacional de Saúde Pública, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Lisbon, Portugal.
Background: Deprescribing can reduce the use of inappropriate or unnecessary medication; however, the economic value of such interventions is uncertain.
Objective: This study seeks to identify and synthetise the economic evidence of deprescribing interventions among community-dwelling older adults.
Methods: Full economic evaluation studies of deprescribing interventions, conducted in the community or primary care settings, in community-dwelling adults aged ≥ 65 years were systematically reviewed.
Diabetes policies and pharmacy-based diabetes interventions in Portugal: a comprehensive review.
J Pharm Policy Pract
March 2019
7Research Institute for Medicines (iMed.ULisboa), Faculty of Pharmacy, Universidade de Lisboa, Lisboa, Portugal.
Background: Pharmacy-based interventions are complex public health endeavors which include, but are not restricted to, the conventional medication supply role. In diabetes, such interventions may improve patients' outcomes. The aim of this study was to review relevant policies and research developed in Portugal directed at pharmacy-based diabetes interventions, and to inform future policies, practice and research in collaborative practice with primary care.
