Preparing the next generation of nursing scientists to conduct high-impact, competitive, sustainable, innovative, and interdisciplinary programs of research requires that the curricula for PhD programs keep pace with emerging areas of knowledge and health care/biomedical science. A field of inquiry that holds great potential to influence our understanding of the underlying biology and mechanisms of health and disease is omics. For the purpose of this article, omics refers to genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, epigenomics, exposomics, microbiomics, and metabolomics. Traditionally, most PhD programs in schools of nursing do not incorporate this content into their core curricula. As part of the Council for the Advancement of Nursing Science's Idea Festival for Nursing Science Education, a work group charged with addressing omics preparation for the next generation of nursing scientists was convened. The purpose of this article is to describe key findings and recommendations from the work group that unanimously and enthusiastically support the incorporation of omics content into the curricula of PhD programs in nursing. The work group also calls to action faculty in schools of nursing to develop strategies to enable students needing immersion in omics science and methods to execute their research goals.
培养下一代护理科学家开展具有高影响力、竞争力、可持续性、创新性和跨学科性的研究项目，要求博士项目的课程跟上知识和医疗保健/生物医学科学新出现的领域。组学是一个具有巨大潜力影响我们对健康和疾病的潜在生物学及机制理解的研究领域。在本文中，组学指基因组学、转录组学、蛋白质组学、表观基因组学、暴露组学、微生物组学和代谢组学。传统上，大多数护理学院的博士项目并未将此内容纳入其核心课程。作为护理科学促进委员会护理科学教育创意节的一部分，一个负责为下一代护理科学家开展组学准备工作的工作组召开了会议。本文旨在描述该工作组的主要发现和建议，这些发现和建议一致且热烈支持将组学内容纳入护理博士项目的课程中。该工作组还呼吁护理学院的教师采取行动，制定策略，使需要深入学习组学科学和方法的学生能够实现他们的研究目标。
