Brief Summary

There is a research gap of integrating genomics into nursing practice, education and research. Nursing students seldom use genetic-genomic data for understanding the individuality of patients and utilize this in delivering personalized or individualized nursing care. Preparing future nurses in genetic-genomic competencies is a fundamental step for clinical application. This research project may help shape the future of the nursing profession in career development by preparing future nurses to emerging advance technologies in genetics-genomics.

Model Details: Randomized controlled trial, parallel design of two-group pretest and repeated posttest is proposed. At Period 1, research participants will be randomly assigned into two groups. Control Group (CG) will receive the the standard genomics education which is already available online. The Intervention Group (IG) will receive the Web-based Genomic Nursing Education which will be designed by the research team based on the results of Pre-test GNCI. After 12 weeks exposure to educational interventions, post-test 1 will be conducted, after 4 weeks post-test 2 will be done and then after 8 weeks post-test 3 will be done.
