John Merriman's additional information

John Merriman, PhD, RN, AOCNS, is an assistant professor at NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing. His primary research interest is improving cognitive function in postmenopausal women with breast cancer using stress management. He is particularly interested in how multiple determinants of health, including biobehavioral and social determinants, impact the efficacy of stress management interventions in this population.

His recent study was funded by a K99/R00 award from the National Institute of Nursing Research (NR015473). This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and potential impact of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, contrasting it with a health enhancement program, on cognitive function in postmenopausal women undergoing aromatase inhibitor therapy for breast cancer.

Prof. Merriman is President of the International Society of Nurses in Genetics. Before joining NYU, he completed postdoctoral training at the University of Pittsburgh School of Nursing, and his PhD and MS in Nursing from the University of California, San Francisco School of Nursing.
