Welcome welcome

Dear Colleague,

It is a pleasure to welcome you to this year’s RCN International Nursing Research Conference taking place in Dundee, Scotland. The conference is organised by the Royal College of Nursing, in association with the School of Nursing and Midwifery, University of Dundee, NHS Tayside and Fife, and in collaboration with the Alliance for Self-Care Research and the Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Professions Training scheme. The aim of the conference is to present knowledge from the leading edge of nursing research. As well as keynote presentations, symposia, masterclasses and workshop presentations, you can choose from over 200 concurrent presentations. Alongside these presentations, there will be on display over 80 poster presentations. Additionally there is a varied menu of fringe events. Full details are included within the conference programme. We hope that you have the opportunity to network with colleagues from far and wide, and still get time to enjoy the social events that have been planned and do some sightseeing in Dundee and the surrounding area. • On Tuesday evening, supported by the Lord Provost of Dundee, we will be visiting ‘Sensation’ an enjoyable, fun, interactive experience where you can explore the world through six zones themed around sound, touch, light, taste and smell, temperature and position. • On Wednesday evening you will have the opportunity of visiting the Royal Research Ship Discovery, built in Dundee and launched in 1901 to take Captain Scott to Antarctica. This event is being sponsored jointly by The Smith & Nephew Foundation and the University of Dundee. • The conference dinner will take place on Thursday evening in a Scottish Castle and as usual promises to be a fun evening. The theme of the evening will be Scottish with pipers, Clarsach player, and a Ceilidh Band. ‘Gutty Slippers’ will present a special performance after dinner and before the Ceilidh. There is an impressive exhibition that we hope you will take time to visit. We are always keen to receive feedback, and this year you will be able to complete your evaluation online. Further details will be emailed to you after the conference. If however, you do have any queries during the conference, please speak to the RCN Events staff at the registration and enquiries desk. Enjoy Dundee.
