Public Health Prepared’s first virtual summit will provide an opportunity to hear from national and Michigan-based leaders in infectious disease and emergency response. The kick-off keynote presentation will offer a critical perspective on future directions for the field to improve data and the public health system for equitable emergency preparedness and response. This will be followed by a panel featuring experts in clinical care, public health practice, and academic research in Michigan who will share successes, challenges, and lessons learned from their experience in cross-sector partnerships for emerging infectious disease emergency response.
