Epi Congress News
 Epi Congress Poster (JPG)
The Epidemiology Education Movement presented a poster and a lunchtime session at the 2006 North American Congress of Epidemiology held in Seattle in June. The Congress is the largest meeting of epidemiology professionals and is held every five years by the American College of Epidemiology, the Society of Epidemiologic Research, and the epidemiology section of the American Public Health Association. This was an excellent opportunity to communicate activities within the Movement and to elicit feedback and ideas about future efforts.

American Public Health Association (APHA) Meeting
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
December 11-14, 2005.
We had an opportunity to hold a session about the "Movement" at the meeting of the American Public Health Association (APHA) held in Philadelphia December 11-14, 2005. Our panel of four presented the rationale for teaching epidemiology to students in grades 6-12 and offered several selected approaches to epidemiology curricula. The panel and attendees then discussed the challenges faced in introducing epidemiology education into the school curricula and explored ways to address those challenges.
