LDI Senior Fellow and University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing Assistant Professor Jane Muir, PhD, RN, has won the 2025 Nurse Researcher Award from the Emergency Nurses Association (ENA), which has 45,000 members in 45 countries.
The international organization’s annual award honors “an individual nurse who has made significant contributions to the profession of nursing, particularly the specialty of emergency nursing, by conducting research, disseminating research findings, or using research to improve outcomes.”
Muir will receive the award in September at the association’s annual conference in New Orleans.
She is a Senior Fellow in the School of Nursing’s Center for Health Outcomes and Policy Research (CHOPR), with a secondary appointment in the Department of Emergency Medicine in the Perelman School of Medicine.
Muir’s research focuses on quantitative and qualitative methods to identify models of care that improve timely and equitable care in community-facing settings such as emergency departments and community health clinics. Her work has been supported by a number of funders, including the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Another area of her research explores hospital emergency departments as an important intervention point for providing equitable care for historically marginalized individuals in the U.S. health care system. Most recently, Muir’s work has focused on improving health care access and quality outcomes for individuals with limited English proficiency, informed by both her emergency department background and current practice as a Family Nurse Practitioner at Puentes de Salud in Philadelphia.
Muir completed undergraduate and graduate studies at the University of Virginia, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship in the National Clinician Scholars Program at the University of Pennsylvania.
