This conference is consistently talked about among NNPs as the best ARNP conference out there. I found that to be true on both coasts (I have lived in SC and WA as an NNP) and true as well for the time I attended myself. I definitely plan to attend this conference again and again. This conference was outstanding & far exceeded my expectations Have seen a wonderful evolution of quality of posters in large part due to quality of this conference Your group effort is exemplary - keep it up!
