Genomics in nursing: Inspired by the translation and integration of genomics, is essential to doctoral nursing champions' yearn to learn.

Genomic advances are rapidly transforming the understanding of health and illness, making it essential for the nursing workforce and faculty to be equipped to teach and deliver genomic-informed care. The Translation and Integration of Genomics is Essential to Doctoral NuRsing (TIGER) program, supported by the National Human Genome Research Institute, utilizes a "train-the-trainer" model to prepare doctoral nurse educators to integrate genomic content into nursing curricula, practice, and research. The TIGER program aims to build capacity among doctoral-prepared nursing faculty to champion genomics integration across education and clinical practice. Translation and Integration of Genomics is Essential to Doctoral NuRsing includes a kickoff workshop held every January in conjunction with the annual American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) Doctoral Education Conference, followed by monthly webinars (February-December) with national genomic experts. The program incorporates asynchronous and synchronous learning, with evaluation through pre/post knowledge assessments, satisfaction surveys, and progress on individual Specific Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound (SMART) goals. To date, TIGER has engaged 61 participants from 24 US states, representing 5.48% (48/875) of AACN-accredited nursing schools. Participants include Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) (n = 30), Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) (n = 29), and DNP/PhD (n = 2) faculty. Translation and Integration of Genomics is Essential to Doctoral NuRsing is building national capacity in genomic nursing education. Participants report increased knowledge and access to resources for faculty development, curriculum integration, pharmacogenomics, simulation, and research. Continued expansion is needed to reach more AACN member schools and strengthen national impact. Genomics is foundational to precision health, and nurse practitioners (NPs) must be prepared to integrate genomic science into clinical care. This manuscript describes the background, structure, challenges, lessons learned, and future directions of TIGER with implications for nursing faculty and the future NP workforce.
