On May 12, 2011, NINR and the NIH Clinical Center cosponsored a joint conference on Symptom Mechanisms, Measurement, and Management. Distinguished guest speakers from across the country presented lectures on a variety of symptom-related topics. Attendees gained a foundation in symptom mechanisms, measurement, and management, particularly those associated with chronic illnesses such as cancer and sickle cell disease. The conference was part of the NINR’s series of anniversary events commemorating the Institute’s first 25 years at NIH and the contributions of nursing science to solving some of America’s most important health challenges.
