Winny Roshala: NAACCR's 2018 Constance L. Percy Distinguished Award Recipient Winny Roshala, CRGC Director, Data Quality Control and Compliance Officer was one of two recipients awarded the Constance L. Percy Distinguished Award at the NAACCR annual meeting held June 13-15th in Pittsburgh, PA. Jennifer Ruhl, of NCI SEER was the other recipient of this prestigious award. Betsy Kohler, NAACCR Executive Director presented Winny with the award and told the audience the following ...as background information. "Winny has been a longstanding contributor to NAACCR, going back to her membership on the Uniform Data Standards committee in 2000. As a former NAACCR board member and a charter member of the Standards and Registry Development Steering Committee, her hands-on-acquired understanding of data acquisition and quality, encompassing Registry Operations as well as Data Standards, have been invaluable. Winny's clear and timely oral presentations at the NAACCR annual meetings have alerted many of us to issues we might not have been aware of. She has been an active contributor on the ICD-O-3 and Volume II workgroups, and she has co-chaired the last three Implementation Guidelines task forces - including meeting the needs for substantial 2018 transition. Above all, her interactions and contributions have always been offered with clarity, respect and consideration for her colleagues. Winny exemplifies the combination of comprehensive understanding, quest for optimizing solutions, and interpersonal civility that NAACCR has continued to provide in our support of cancer surveillance."
