Biography

“My commitment to bridging the gap between evidence and practice is informed by my background as a nurse practitioner and educator. I firmly believe in the importance of involving front-line health care teams in the research process to generate evidence that is meaningful and readily translatable.”

Carolyn Huffman is a board-certified women’s health nurse practitioner. She holds a doctoral degree and a specialty certification in reproductive endocrinology (the study of hormones) and infertility nursing.  

In her clinical practice, she is the director for nursing research for Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist. Additionally, she is an assistant professor in the Department of Implementation Science at the Wake Forest University School of Medicine. 

Huffman’s diverse research portfolio includes serving as the principal investigator and the co-investigator on studies related to nursing workforce and well-being, reproductive loss (infertility and miscarriage), continuous vital sign monitoring and non-pharmacological interventions for pain control. She was a doctoral fellow in the National Institutes of Health-sponsored Interventions for Preventing and Managing of Chronic Illness training program.

Huffman received her bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees at the University of North Carolina.
