Abstract
Recognizing the need to bring together the diverse set of stakeholders involved in the medical and public health preparedness response, The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, Health and Medicine Division, established the Forum on Medical and Public Health Preparedness for Catastrophic Events, the Forum, in 2007, to engage leaders from across governmental, non-governmental, and private sectors, i.e. federal agencies, private foundations, the academic community, state and local public health authorities, and professional associations.
