TRajectories of Aging and Care (TRAC) Center Research Seminars

The overall goal of the TRajectories of Aging and Care (TRAC) Center is to expand the base of nurse scientists collaborating with leading investigators from a variety of disciplines to conduct nurse-directed interdisciplinary studies that examine longitudinal patterns of health, illness, function, and care in later life across diverse care contexts, including home and institution.

On the second Mondays of each month research presentations given by TRAC Center Investigators are delivered to 10 member sites using H.323 videoconferencing. Informal discussion follows the presentations.

The presentations are sponsored by the Regional Training Core of Gerontological Nursing Interventions Research Center (GNIRC) at The University of Iowa College of Nursing and ITS-Instructional Services through the Internet2 Commons.
