Epidemiologists' Forum
The Epidemiologists’ Forum is co-sponsored by the Epidemiology and Biostatistics section of the Oregon Public Health Association (OPHA), the Oregon Public Health Division and the Center for Healthy Communities at OHSU. It is an opportunity for epidemiologists from all Portland-area institutions to meet. Meetings usually consist of a 1-hour presentation and a 1-hour social gathering.
The audience for the Forum typically includes epidemiologists, researchers and other data users at OHSU, PSU, Kaiser CHR, Providence CORE, Multnomah, Clackamas and Washington Health Departments, NW Portland Area Indian Health Board, and Oregon Public Health Division. New attendees are always welcome!
