Harnessing 'The Nurse Effect' to Elevate Industry Nurses
The LifeSci Industry Nurses Association
Shaping the Future of Life Sciences Through the Power of Nursing
As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we are dedicated to creating a space where nurses can excel in their careers, drive meaningful change, and build on their unique value, which is rooted in a holistic understanding of patient needs. We advocate for innovative technologies, treatments, and practices that prioritize empathy and patient-centered care.
A strong, united network of nurse leaders enhances their collective influence, creating transformative change across the industry.
Nurses are widely recognized as innovators and leaders in healthcare and life sciences.
The nursing perspective is sought after and shapes policy, practice, and decision-making at all levels.
We strive to build a future where the critical contributions of nurses to the life sciences industry are fully recognized, valued, and celebrated. Nurses are already driving innovation, shaping policy, and advancing healthcare, but their impact often goes unacknowledged. At LINA, we aim to amplify their voices and foster a network where their leadership and expertise are elevated and embraced.
We envision a future where:
Our vision is to see nurses recognized as essential leaders and change-makers within the life sciences industry.
