Pamela J. Brink

Pamela Brink is the founder of the WJNR and has been its editor throughout its history. She initiated a number of innovations in nursing research journals such as: commentaries and author rebuttal on clinical articles; publication of succesful NINR grant proposals with their pink sheets ; research briefs on such topics as cultural diversity, historiography, and research ethics; educational issues in research; publication of full research symposia with guest editors; and special issues on timely research topics. In addition, she has always tried to interest an

international audience by soliciting and publishing research reports from scholars outside north America.
