“Go Red Day is a day when people across the nation unite to wear red in support of one common goal: saving women’s lives,” says Kari Criqui, nurse manager in cardiology, pulmonary, neurophysiology, and nephrology. “Cardiovascular disease is the No.1 killer of women, more than all cancers combined, and less than half of all women know their risk. Today, we come together to raise awareness, educate, and support women of all ages and empower them to advocate for their heart health!”

Who among your peers is rockin’ the red this year?
