There is a thread that runs through Duke University School of Nursing, one that weaves together education and experience to create a tapestry of care across the lifespan. Our students, staff, faculty, and thousands of alumni have built a culture of care that has impacted countless lives in our own backyard here in Durham, across the nation, and throughout the world.
As summer temperatures climb, nurses are sounding the alarm: extreme heat is not just uncomfortable, but a serious health risk. From emergency departments to community clinics, nurses see firsthand how high temperatures can quickly become dangerous, especially for people with underlying health conditions or limited access to cooling.
Make the most of your lunch break with Monday Moves! From 12:30-12:50 PM every Monday, you can participate in online guided stretch breaks with the LIVE FOR LIFE Fitness Team to benefit your mental and physical health!
Our school’s commitment to advancing nursing science began decades before the 2006 launch of the PhD program.
About the Exhibition
Til Íslands presents images of dislocation and reconnection with the Icelandic landscape after a century of separation. The exhibition includes 35mm and 16mm film, alternative processed photography, and textiles naturally dyed with Icelandic plants to reflect the colors of the landscape. Created over the course of a summer in 2025, Til Íslands documents the delicate experience of becoming reacquainted with a landscape and people in the midst of dramatic environmental change.

Come join us in the fields to lose track of time, be outdoors, practice embodied work, and experience profound community with plants, soil, and humans! Our students, volunteers, and staff consistently say that their most memorable memories at DCF are the conversations they shared over a wheelbarrow of mulch or while tackling weeds in a bed of carrots together. Absolutely no farming experience is necessary, and there is no Duke affiliation required. We have tasks for most ages and abilities.
