Challenge panels

CHALLENGE PANEL 3: MICROBIAL THREATS 101: WHAT’S MINE IS YOURS Since the emergence and/or re-emergence of SARS, H1N1 influenza, MERS and Ebola many public and private-sector leaders have seen a need for improved management of global public health emergencies. The consequences of such events on health, education, commerce, transportation and beyond, have increased interest in building coordinated global responses to infectious threats, many of which could globally disrupt health and markets. Panelists will share their thoughts on improving international management and response to outbreaks. Wednesday, April 17, 2019 — 7:30 am – 6 pm Dr Cassandra Kelly, FIND’s Director of Emerging Threats, will be on the Microbial Threats panel
