A nurse scientist is a registered nurse with advanced education and expertise in nursing research.[1] These professionals play a critical role in advancing nursing knowledge, improving patient care, and shaping the future of the nursing profession.[1] Highly educated and specialized, nurse scientists conduct research to generate new knowledge about nursing care, employing a deep understanding of nursing theory, research methodologies, and clinical practice.[2] Nurse scientists are essential contributors to the development of new nursing interventions and practices.[3] Their skills extend beyond academic settings and these advanced nurses work in hospitals, research institutes, and community organizations. Through their efforts, nurse scientists have a profound impact on the quality of healthcare, contributing significantly to the improvement of patient care and the overall advancement of the nursing profession.[3] They possess advanced qualifications, typically holding a Ph.D. in nursing or a related field, demonstrating expertise not only in research principles and methodology but also in-depth content knowledge within a specific clinical area. The primary focus of the role is to provide leadership in the development, coordination and management of clinical research studies; provide mentorship for nurses in research; lead evaluation activities that improve outcomes for patients participating in research studies; contribute to the overall health sciences literature.[4] Nurse scientists have been regarded as knowledge brokers.[5] They participate in nursing research.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12]
