In our busy world it’s easy to forget the importance of finding time to be face-to-face with the members of the public health community; the power that exists in being connected to other people who are active in your line of work. The truth is that no matter how experienced you are, you can always learn something new through the experiences of others.
Public health conferences provide a great opportunity for all of us to learn, find renewed inspiration for the work we do, and hear from the leaders in our field. So we asked you to share which conferences you have enjoyed the most and often attend. The responses were as varied as our work but below are a few of your favorites coming up this spring.
