Personal profile
Research Interests
Dr. Limoges' research and knowledge mobilization focus on accelerating the integration of genomics into nursing and interprofessional education, research, practice and policy. She recently completed a Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) funded policy catalyst research to generate policy recommendations to support the integration of genomics into oncology nursing education and practice. Building on the results of the oncology study, she is co-pi on a CIHR funded planning and dissemination grant to mobilize genomics into other nursing specialities. Dr Limoges recently completed a Social Sciences and Humanities and Genome Canada funded scoping review to explore nursing strategies that address health disparities associated with the integration of genomics. Dr. Limoges is working collaboratively with partners across Canada and in the US, UK, and Finland on genomics related research. Other research projects focus on how the COVID-19 pandemic continues to influence health, health care and nursing models of care and research ethics.
