This article aims to present an overview of nursing research in France. To this end, it will be structured according to three main themes: research activity based on 3 original studies, the promotion of research, and knowledge management and transfer. In France, the challenges of nursing research are rich and varied but must give rise to several points of reflection. While there are more and more French nurse researchers, research themes are still mainly influenced by research funding. In addition, they are also chosen according to the researcher's personal interests. Finally, the gap between theory and practice exists as in all countries and the reinvestment of research into practice seems to be a general problem. It seems that universitarisation and in particular the creation of dual membership positions should undoubtedly help to reduce this gap between theory and practice.
