Hi all,
November 13-15 marked the 2011 Global Health Conference, co-hosted for the first time by the Global Health Education Consortium, the http://www.cugh.org/, and the Canadian Society for International Health. Many of the sessions focused on issues surrounding education and research/healthcare workforce, but the range of topics was very broad, from a rousing presentation of scientific breakthroughs in HIV prevention and treatment featuring Tom Quinn (JHU/NIH) and Myron Cohen (UNC) to discussions on how to approach the ethical challenges often faced in international projects.
For those who couldn’t make the trip up north, do not despair, the folks at CUGH have put together a great blog with summaries of all the sessions, as well as videos of all the plenary sessions and a few breakouts as well. Enjoy!
