Co-Founders & Executive Stewards
Chia-Shih Yoh
Chunlei Tang, PhD
The Co-Founders jointly provide strategic direction and organizational stewardship for NurseKnowsNurse™. Together, they are responsible for governance oversight, mission alignment, external partnerships, and the development of structures that support practitioner-led collaboration, research, and innovation.
Each Co-Founder contributes complementary expertise to leadership, decision-making, and organizational development, ensuring balanced stewardship and continuity across initiatives.
Clinical, Research, and Technical Leadership
NurseKnowsNurse™ is supported by experienced clinicians, researchers, and technical experts, including data scientists and engineers, who contribute domain expertise, contextual guidance, and ethical judgment across initiatives. These contributors provide specialized input relevant to specific projects and areas of work, without fixed organizational hierarchy.
Clinical, research, and technical leaders collaborate with designated project leads to inform project design, methods, and implementation, while primary responsibility for scope, execution, and outcomes remains with project leadership.
Project-Based Leadership
Leadership within NurseKnowsNurse™ is exercised through clearly defined, project-based roles that emphasize accountability and professional responsibility. Each initiative is led by a designated project lead who holds primary responsibility for project scope, execution, collaboration, and outcomes.
Project leads function in a manner analogous to investigator-led models of research governance, providing scientific, ethical, and operational oversight appropriate to the nature and stage of each initiative.
Advisory Contributions
Advisory contributors may be engaged to provide subject-matter expertise, methodological guidance, or contextual insight. Advisory roles are consultative in nature and do not carry formal governance authority unless explicitly defined within a specific initiative.
Advisory contributions may include expertise drawn from cross-disciplinary, cross-institutional, or international contexts, as appropriate to the scope and needs of individual initiatives.
