Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to attend the 2011 JBI Convention and to establish whether an
evidence-based approach to the delivery of healthcare will in fact improve global health outcomes.

Agents who form part of the healthcare operative come from a variety of professions and are chosen based on the
particular skills necessary to the mission.  While not all agents are required for every mission, they all play a crucial
role in ensuring a stable future for improved global health outcomes.  It is for this reason we require agents from
all the health disciplines to make up our Impossible Mission Force and attend this important event.

Our adversaries on this mission are many and often appear in disguise so you must be wary.  Ritualistic
approaches to care provision and a lack of knowledge regarding the science and utility of evidence to inform
clinical decision making can have devastating effects. This clandestine operation aims to resolve these issues
and more.

We look forward to welcoming you in Adelaide for your event briefing and mission training.
which began last fall with a kick-off symposium attended by more than 500 nurses and other health care
scientists, clinicians and members of the public. Bringing Science to Life: A Healthier Tomorrow will
commemorate the contributions that nursing science has made to solving some of America’s most
important health challenges. The symposium will include keynote and science presentations, a panel
discussion, and a guided poster tour.  For more information about the symposium, visit: www.ninr.nih.
