This event will focus on honoring the work of two extraordinary women, Dr. Shelly Timmons and Dr. Karin Murasko, who have been leaders not only in their fields of neurotrauma and pediatric neurosurgery, but for our incredible WINS community as a whole. The keynote address will be delivered by Candy Crawley, an award-winning journalist who has served as CNN chief political correspondent.
