CALL FOR ABSTRACTS - 2011
The 2011 Abstract submission process has now closed. Thanks to everybody who submitted an abstract or signed up to be a reviewer! This year's conference program is be representative of the variety of topics and geographic areas represented in public health in Colorado. Conference sessions will be in one of the following formats:
- Skill-building Session (2 hours): Skill-building sessions are intended to teach a specific skill needed by public health professionals and include one or more exercises that let attendees practice using this skill. Attendees should begin to develop a skill that important for public health and related to one or more of the Ten Essential Services. This session differs from a Program/Research Showcase Session in that attendees will have a hands-on opportunity to practice the skill versus a lecture-based session.
- Program/Research Showcase Session (30 minutes): Program/Research Showcase Sessions are intended to provide attendees with a synopsis of a public health program or relevant research. Attendees should learn about how the program or research relates to the Ten Essential Services and to the theme of the conference “Public Health in Action.” Presenters should ensure time is available for questions and answers during the 30-minute session.
- Poster Session: Poster Sessions are intended to provide a graphic presentation of program or research findings by displaying graphs, photos, diagrams and descriptive text. The authors will then hold discussions with the registrants who are circulating among the poster boards during the designated poster session timeframe. The presenter should remain by his/her poster board for the duration of the one hour session to answer questions.
If you submitted an abstract, stay tuned - we'll let you know asap if your abstract was accepted for the conference program.
