Dr. Neville Strumpf is widely recognized for her outstanding contributions to the field of gerontology. Although Dr. Strumpf is probably best known for her work with her colleague, Dr. Lois Evans, on the elimination of physical restraints in nursing homes and hospitals, her remarkable career as ground-breaking researcher, innovative teacher, caring mentor, as well as top administrator, is unmatched.

Christine Bradway, PhD, CRNP, received her MSN and PhD in nursing from the University of Pennsylvania. Her dissertation focused on the narratives of women with long-term urinary incontinence; and her current examinations of health issues affecting older women's lives is the continuation of this work. Her research interests also include delirium in hospitalized older adults and emergency care of the elderly. In her current position as an Assistant Professor of Gerontological Nursing at the University Of Pennsylvania School Of Nursing, Dr. Bradway provides faculty leadership for the Adult Health and Gerontology Nurse Practitioner Programs. Dr. Bradway has practiced as a gerontologic nurse practitioner for over 20 years in a variety of settings including long-term care, community-based primary and specialty care, and as a nurse clinician in a tertiary care setting. She currently maintains a clinical appointment as Continence Program Director at Meadowbrook Urologic Associates where she has been a member of the practice for many years. Prior to her appointment at Meadowbrook Urological Associates, Dr. Bradway was founder and director of the Penn Nursing Network Continence Program. Dr. Bradway and her colleagues received the Best of Image Award for Nursing Research for their article “Functional Status Outcomes of a Nursing Intervention in Hospitalized Elderly” and Dr. Bradway’s book, Nursing Care of Geriatric Emergencies received an American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year Award. Dr. Bradway’s dissertation research recently received the Best Paper Presentation Award at the 12th Annual Research Papers Presentation Night of the Delaware Valley Geriatrics Society.
