On My APHA Peer-Reviewer Invitation

Dear Dr. David,

APHA’s 2019 Annual Meeting and Expo will bring together more than 12,000 public health professionals to attend 1,000+ scientific sessions on the latest public health research, policy and topics.

We need your help

Become an abstract reviewer! Educational sessions are the highlight of each Annual Meeting, and people often ask how to get involved in session development. Reviewers take a firsthand look at abstracts, evaluate them and help develop scientific content to be presented at the meeting.

Abstract Reviewer Benefits:

  1. Gain experience to add to your CV.
  2. Share and increase your knowledge on public health topics.
  3. Connect with other reviewers, public health professionals and APHA staff.
  4. Contribute to enriching sessions.

Deadline to Become a Reviewer: Jan. 31

Reviewing Begins: March 4
