Congratulations to Associate Professor Lucinda Canty on recently receiving a $500,000 grant from the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center to study preeclampsia, a pregnancy-related complication.

Much is still unknown about preeclampsia. Canty and her research team will delve into its causes with the aim of improving treatment and outcomes. They will also look at if the condition disproportionately affects Black women, who are three to four times more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications than white women.

This Nurses Week, we’re continuing recognizing the faculty who challenge, support, and inspire future nurses every step of the way, both inside and outside of the classroom. ❤️

Today’s Nurse Appreciation Shoutout celebrates Professor Heidi Zahara for the lasting impact she has made on students through her dedication, guidance, and passion for nursing education.

From pushing students to think critically to creating lessons that stay with them far beyond the classroom, Professor Zahara continues to shape confident and compassionate future nurses every day.

Thank you for all you do for the UMass Nursing community, and Happy Nurses Week! 🩺
