IU School of Nursing Names New Executive Associate Dean of Research

Tuesday, May 16, 2023

INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana University School of Nursing, the state’s leader in nursing research, has appointed Wendy Trueblood Miller, PhD, RN, CNS, CCRN, FAAN, FAES, as the executive associate dean of research, effective July 1, 2023.

Trueblood Miller will lead the school’s research mission, enhancing a supportive environment where research and scholarship thrives. Her leadership will enable faculty and student research scientists to continue developing tools and interventions in the clinical arena as well as in the science of education.

Clinical interventions improve the quality and efficacy of care, prevent illness and injury, and improve outcomes for patients. The science of educational interventions to promote teaching, learning and pedagogy develop cutting-edge curriculum and teaching practices that enhance the delivery of education for nurses around the world.

“Dr. Trueblood Miller is a leader with the knowledge and expertise to advance the future of nursing research. Our program of research is supported by two T-32s and $2.7 million in external grants. We look forward to her engagement across IU School of Nursing to fuel discovery to new levels by empowering and supporting our faculty in their programs of research and students who are our next generation of faculty and researchers,” said Robin Newhouse, dean of IU School of Nursing.

Trueblood Miller’s program of research, which is funded by the National Library of Medicine and National Institute of Nursing Research at the NIH, as well as various industry grants, is focused on chronic disease self-management, specifically epilepsy. She is an experienced intervention scientist with expertise in using Big Data methods to capture the patient’s voice. Recently named director-at-large for the American Association of Neuroscience Nurses, Trueblood Miller also holds leadership positions with the Epilepsy Foundation and the American Epilepsy Society. Other external funding includes UCB Pharma and Upsher-Smith and an NIH P30 for the development of a Brain Safety Lab in collaboration with the Indiana University School of Medicine and the Indiana University Center for Aging Research. She is also a co-leader of the newly launched Irsay Institute at IU Bloomington.

“I am excited to work with our talented faculty – who are nationally and internationally recognized for their research expertise – to build upon the school’s well-established reputation as a leader in innovative nursing research. I am excited to support research throughout all of our academic programs as well—our students are highly involved in research in both the undergraduate and graduate settings. There is enormous potential to continue building our innovation in research at IUSON, and I could not be more thrilled to be stepping into this important position,” said Dr. Trueblood Miller.

Since March 2022, Trueblood Miller has served as the associate dean of Indiana University School of Nursing on the Bloomington campus. She joined the school’s full-time faculty in 2012, serving as associate professor, PhD coordinator, and co-director of the National Institutes of Health-funded T32, an advanced training program that prepares nurse scientists to conduct research to develop and test self-management interventions for serious chronic conditions. Dr. Trueblood Miller will continue in her role as T32 co-director.
