About

The CSTE Annual Conference connects more than 2,500 public health epidemiologists from across the country and will include workshops, plenary sessions with leaders in the field of public health, oral breakout sessions, roundtable discussions, and poster presentations. Conference attendees meet and share their expertise in surveillance and epidemiology as well as best practices in a broad range of areas including informatics, infectious diseases, substance use, immunizations, environmental health, occupational health, chronic disease, injury control, and maternal and child health. During the conference, CSTE members vote on position statements, which instigate nationwide policy change and create new initiatives. Take this opportunity to meet, build relationships, and network with your professional colleagues and peers.

We are currently planning for the possibility of some conference sessions to be held in-person and others virtually, however if circumstances change due to public health recommendations for group gatherings, then all portions of the conference may be held virtually.

The conference website will be updated on an ongoing basis, so check back often for new information.

JANET HAMILTON

“CSTE’s Annual Conference is a unique, energetic gathering
of applied public health epidemiologists and practitioners from
across the U.S. and its territories. Our more than 2500 attendees
meet to share knowledge, best practices, current trends and
professional challenges in the field, and carry this information
back to their jurisdictions. The collective voice of many has so
much power.”
