Opportunity Summary:
The TriService Nursing Research Program (TSNRP) "Open Call" is a funding opportunity focused on advancing the science and practice of military nursing through well-designed research studies and evidence-based practice (EBP) projects. Established in 1992, TSNRP exists specifically to build and strengthen the knowledge base that supports nursing care in military settings, where clinical demands can include operational environments, austere care conditions, deployment-related health issues, and the unique needs of service members and their families. The emphasis on rigorous scientific methods and practical, implementable EBP work signals that the program is interested not only in generating new knowledge, but also in translating credible findings into real-world improvements in nursing practice and patient outcomes across the military health system.
TSNRP is housed within the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USU). USU has explicit legal authority, under 10 USC 2113(g)(1)(A), to award grants to nonprofit entities in order to carry out cooperative activities in medical research, medical consultation, and medical education. In practical terms, that statutory authority is what enables TSNRP to provide grant funding and build partnerships with eligible nonprofit organizations, supporting projects that align with military medical priorities and contribute to improved readiness, care quality, and health outcomes. The "Open Call" framing indicates an open solicitation approach rather than a single narrowly defined topic area, which typically means applicants can propose a range of military nursing-related questions and implementation initiatives, as long as they clearly connect to the mission of military nursing and meet expectations for scientific rigor, feasibility, and impact.
At its core, this opportunity supports two closely related types of work. First, it funds research studies that use sound scientific design to address gaps in knowledge relevant to military nursing, which can include clinical interventions, care delivery models, workforce and training needs, patient safety, resilience, recovery, and other issues that affect how nursing is practiced in military and operational contexts. Second, it supports evidence-based practice projects, which generally focus on applying the best available evidence to a real clinical or operational problem, implementing changes in practice, and evaluating outcomes to show whether the change improves care. EBP projects often emphasize measurable improvements, adoption and sustainability in the clinical setting, and producing lessons that can be replicated across sites, which is especially important in large systems like the military health enterprise.
Overall, the TSNRP "Open Call" is best understood as an ongoing mechanism for investing in military nursing innovation and improvement, backed by USU's grant-making authority to partner with nonprofit entities. The intended result is a stronger evidence base for military nursing decisions and a pipeline of practical, validated approaches that can be put into use to improve care quality and support mission readiness.

What types of projects does the TSNRP "Open Call" support?
The opportunity supports two closely related types of work: (1) research studies and (2) evidence-based practice (EBP) projects, both focused on military nursing priorities.
What is meant by "research studies" under this opportunity?
Research studies are projects that use sound scientific design to address gaps in knowledge relevant to military nursing, with an emphasis on rigorous methods, feasibility, and meaningful impact.
What is meant by "evidence-based practice (EBP) projects" under this opportunity?
EBP projects generally focus on applying the best available evidence to a real clinical or operational problem, implementing changes in practice, and evaluating outcomes to determine whether the change improves care.
How is the TSNRP "Open Call" different from a narrowly defined solicitation?
The "Open Call" framing indicates an open solicitation approach rather than a single narrowly defined topic. This typically means applicants may propose a range of military nursing-related research questions and implementation initiatives, as long as they clearly connect to the mission and meet expectations for rigor, feasibility, and impact.
What settings or conditions are especially relevant to TSNRP-funded work?
The opportunity is designed to support nursing care knowledge in military contexts, including operational environments, austere care conditions, deployment-related health issues, and the unique needs of service members and their families.
What topic areas might be a fit for TSNRP-funded research studies?
Examples of areas mentioned include clinical interventions, care delivery models, workforce and training needs, patient safety, resilience, recovery, and other issues affecting how nursing is practiced in military and operational contexts.
What does TSNRP emphasize about scientific quality?
TSNRP emphasizes rigorous scientific methods for research studies and practical, implementable evidence-based practice work, signaling an interest in both generating new knowledge and translating findings into improvements in practice.
What does TSNRP look for in evidence-based practice (EBP) projects?
EBP projects often emphasize measurable improvements, adoption and sustainability in the clinical setting, and producing lessons that can be replicated across sites, which is particularly important in large systems like the military health enterprise.
Does this program focus only on generating new knowledge, or also on implementation?
It supports both. The description highlights interest in generating credible knowledge through rigorous research and translating that knowledge into real-world improvements through implementable EBP initiatives.
How does this opportunity relate to military readiness?
The program supports projects that align with military medical priorities and contribute to improved readiness, care quality, and health outcomes by strengthening the evidence base used for military nursing decisions and practice.
What is the intended outcome or impact of the TSNRP "Open Call"?
The intended result is a stronger evidence base for military nursing decisions and a pipeline of practical, validated approaches that can be put into use to improve care quality and support mission readiness across the military health system.
Why does TSNRP emphasize replicability across sites?
The description notes that replicable lessons are especially important in large systems like the military health enterprise, where improvements may need to be applied across multiple locations and contexts.
What does it mean that TSNRP funds "cooperative activities"?
Based on the statutory authority described, the grants are tied to cooperative activities in medical research, medical consultation, and medical education, suggesting projects are expected to support partnership-based work aligned to these areas.
How long has TSNRP been established?
TSNRP was established in 1992.
