Hundreds of nursing researchers filled the ballroom at Weber State University on October 24 for the 9th Annual Nursing Research Conference, titled "Advancing Nursing Through Research, Education, and Practice."

This year’s conference provided an opportunity to learn about current nursing research that influences both nursing education and practice. In addition to learning from internationally recognized nurse scholars and researchers, a poster session provided a venue for the dissemination of current, regional projects related to nursing research, educational innovations, and evidencebased practice.
