Forum on Emerging Infections
Abstract
The Forum on Emerging Infections comprises representatives from academia, industry, professional and interest groups, and government agencies. Through public workshops and private meetings, the activities of the Forum seek to facilitate discussion and inquiry into the most challenging and crosscutting set of issues. Sessions of the Forum are designed to examine emerging as well as long-standing problems in light of the most recent or groundbreaking advances that may lead to further innovation or solutions. Summary reports based on the proceedings of the workshops are prepared and published by the National Academy Press. Dissemination of the report targets audiences of the Forum's activities including decisionmakers within the government agencies of the Departments of Defense, State, Agriculture, Veterans Affairs, and Health and Human Services; state, tribal, and local government agencies in all domains of public health; schools of public health; the academic and industry research communities; international health experts; and the legislative and policy communities.
