The Center for Spirituality & Healing is pleased to announce the recipient of the 2008-2010 A. Marilyn Sime Faculty Research Fellowship Program: Patricia Judson, MD, FACOG, FACS. Congratulations to Dr. Judson and to all the worthy applicants.
Established in 1998 from a gift by School of Nursing Professor Emeritus, A. Marilyn Sime, PhD, RN, the fellowship was created to identify and support faculty who have high potential for a research career in areas including complementary therapies and healing practices, spirituality and cross-culture healing practices.
Under the fellowship program, faculty receive up to .50 funding for a period of up to two years. At the conclusion of the fellowship, it is expected that extramural funding will sustain the research. Research fellows hold appointments in both their academic department/collegiate unit as well as the Center for Spirituality & Healing. University of Minnesota tenure and tenure-track faculty are eligible to apply for Faculty Research Fellowships in the Center for Spirituality & Healing.
