About
Dr. Julie Wilson serves as Lecturer in Nursing within Ulster University's School of Nursing and Paramedic Science (Faculty of Life & Health Sciences), maintaining academic activities across both Belfast (York Street) and Jordanstown campuses. Her dual-campus presence supports integrated teaching and research in clinical nursing practice.
Her research portfolio demonstrates significant contributions across three critical domains:
- Respiratory Health: Developing nurse-led smoking cessation protocols for COPD patients
- Pediatric Urology: Optimizing alarm therapy for childhood nocturnal enuresis
- Oncology Rehabilitation: Implementing physical activity interventions for breast cancer-related lymphoedema
These interconnected specialties position her work at the forefront of evidence-based nursing practice, directly addressing UN Sustainable Development Goal 3 targets through clinically applicable research.
Recent publications (2024-2025) reveal a strategic shift toward systematic evidence synthesis and contemporary clinical trend analysis, moving beyond her foundational randomized controlled trial work. This evolution demonstrates increasing influence in establishing clinical guidelines while maintaining rigorous methodological standards across nursing sub-specialties.
As Principal Investigator for the 2008-2010 COPD action plan project and active collaborator with PhD researchers like Laura Henry, Dr. Wilson maintains a robust supervision profile. Her research methodology expertise spans clinical trials, systematic reviews, and trend analysis—providing strong mentorship foundations for graduate students in nursing science.
