The Joanna Briggs Institute - known internationally as "JBI" - is an international not-for-profit organisation, operating 72 collaborating centres and groups around the world. It focuses on researching evidence-based healthcare. The Institute is based in Adelaide, South Australia. It was established by Royal Adelaide Hospital as an affiliated institute of the University of Adelaide in 1996 and is now a School within the Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Adelaide in Australia.
History
It was established in 1996 by the Royal Adelaide Hospital and the University of Adelaide,[1] and takes its name from Joanna Briggs, who was the first matron of the Royal Adelaide Hospital[2].
