Is Boards a validated scientific or clinical system?
No such claim is made here. These examples concern visual planning and workshops, not validated records, clinical decisions or regulated submissions.
Should we put patient or sensitive research data on a board?
Decide this through your organisation’s data and review processes. Use appropriate non-sensitive material and consult the privacy policy before sharing information.
