The IACRN annual conference offers clinical research nurses (CRNs) the opportunity to build on current knowledge, share personal experience, and network with national and international CRN colleagues while addressing the educational needs of the CRN. The dynamic and complex global landscape of clinical research has an impact on the professional development activities for CRNs. Knowledge and skills vary widely, with new CRNs practicing at a novice level and others with more advanced knowledge and skills practicing at an expert level. Through the international specialty practice, CRNs make significant contributions to the clinical research enterprise. The 2022 conference will focus on advancement in clinical research nursing through cultivating and building the specialty practice.

COVID Information
IACRN will honor mandates set within Atlanta and follow all CDC guidelines at the time of the conference. The city of Atlanta's indoor mask mandate has been lifted and masks are optional inside Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. Private business owners can require patrons to show proof of vaccination. At this time, there is no testing requirement or proof-of-vaccination mandate for the city of Atlanta. Masking mandates can change frequently, and IACRN will monitor movements to keep conference attendees informed. The health and well-being of our conference attendees is of the utmost importance to IACRN and the Crowne Plaza. Please review the relevant COVID health and safety procedures in Atlanta.

Conference attendees are asked to agree to abide by all applicable COVID related requirements, policies, advisories, and protocols of the hotel and IACRN, as well as the CDC, the City of Atlanta, and any other governmental authority for the duration of their stay. Attendees should understand that there is a risk of exposure or infection of COVID by attending the conference and they knowingly and freely assume all such risks, both known and unknown, and assume full personal responsibility for their participation in the conference. In doing so, they release IACRN, the Crowne Plaza Atlanta Midtown and all of their staff and contractors from liability should they become ill, directly or indirectly, as a result of their participation in the event. Although IACRN's conference will not have a masking policy, we will have masks available to those who would like them and we do encourage you to wear a mask and practice social distancing as much as possible.
