Dr. Blackwell’s research study, “Preventing HIV through Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP): An Evaluation of Family Nurse Practitioner Programs in the United States” has been selected for funding through a competitive grant program from the Fellows of the American Association of Nurse Practitioners. The study will examine the amount of curricular content graduate family nurse practitioner students are exposed to on PrEP during their master or doctoral FNP program. The study should be completed by the end of 2025. Dr. Blackwell was inducted as a Fellow in the American Association of Nurse Practitioners in 2016.
