The CARDS are a perfect 10! The two groups of Community Advisors on Research Design and Strategies (CARDS) coordinated by WINRS just celebrated their 10th anniversary. In honor of the occasion, WINRS held Zoom parties with awards and comments from Dr. Linda Scott, the Dean of the School of Nursing, and Dr. Barbara Bowers, Director, CAP Education & Training Programs.
