Event Details

What is the best part of any scientific conference you have attended? The seminars? Nope. The poster sessions? No way! The plenary speech? You have to be kidding. The vendors? Not much swag in this economy.

The best part of any conference is sitting around the table at a restaurant or pub discussing the latest work with your peers. Drinks, food and conversation. More research began its journey on a cocktail napkin than any other source.

Seattle has more researchers, with more money, working on issues that impact global health than almost any other city in the US. Why not get them together to meet each other and discuss their work, in a setting as convivial as a pub table?

That is the goal of the Global Health Dialogues, sponsored by the Washington Global Health Alliance. The dialogues  use a novel format to help foster conversations. No Powerpoint. No lecturer. No podium. Just peers discussing a relevant topic. But only after a suitable period for making connections, eating some food and downing some drinks.

The first five Global Health Dialogues were very successful with a large number of vibrant discussions.

The next Global Health Dialogues will take place January 31  from 5:30-7:00 PM at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. Dr. Stephen Friend will not be able to attend the Dialogues on Monday evening. Dr, Jonathan Izant, Vice-President of Sage Bionetworks, will be there in his place. Dr. Izant has an extensive research and business background. He felt a nice topic would be "Data Sharing Market Failure."
Hope to see you there.But there will also be lots of opportunity to chat about almost anything.

So, if you are a researcher in Seattle exploring global health, or just interested in global health issues, join us January 31. Meet some of your peers. Try some food. Imbibe some liquid refreshment. And become part of the  Global Health Dialogues.

Space is limited.

We will have lots of cocktail napkins for you.
