Conference 2023: Early bird registration and call for abstracts

#PHABCCon23: Early Bird Registration

Join us in celebrating our 70th anniversary by attending this year’s conference, “Public Health and Equity in the Digital Age.

As digital advancements shape the way health information is accessed, shared, and utilized, understanding the implications for equitable health outcomes becomes paramount.

Addressing misinformation concerns, ensuring digital access for all, leveraging AI for precision health, and enhancing quality of life through assistive technologies are crucial discussions in the pursuit of inclusive and effective public health strategies.

This conference provides a timely platform to dissect these intricacies and equip practitioners with the insights needed to navigate the evolving landscape of health in the digital age.

The conference plenary sessions will focus on four inter-related themes:

  1. AI, Misinformation and Disinformation
  2. Digital Equity and Access
  3. Innovation in Public Health Technology and AI
  4. Assistive Devices and Healthy Aging

Register now for early bird rates before it ends on October 6th!

Call for Abstracts: Now Open

Interested in presenting at the conference? Individuals and groups are invited to submit abstracts for one or more of the following presentation format(s):

  • Oral presentation (15-20 minutes)
  • Poster presentations (in-person “walk about” during poster session & on display both days)
  • Workshop (1.5 hours)

Based on the restricted opportunities for oral presentations, we strongly encourage applicants to consider structuring their proposals, particularly if they are practice-based research, around a poster presentation.

The poster session will be held at the end of the first day on the conference on November 21st and will be designed as a ‘walk-about’ in order to structure maximum interaction with the presenters and their work.

The call for abstracts will close on October 13th.
