Climate Change and Human Health (C2H2) Through a Translational Science Lens

This Un-Meeting has ended.
About
The Center for Leading Innovation and Collaboration (CLIC), the coordinating center for the NCATS CTSA Program, is hosting this Un-Meeting. This is an unconventional meeting, which lacks the rules and structure of a traditional conference, focuses on bringing together researchers, clinicians, policymakers, public health professionals, healthcare innovators, and opinion leaders to discuss and develop innovative and effective ideas regarding climate change in human health.
The link between C2H2 and translational science is not intuitive for all. Working backward from climate-related disease to causes for that disease may help relate the patient-centered paradigm of translational science with the environmental science paradigm.
The emphasis of this Un-Meeting will be on adaptation (e.g. addressing health impacts) rather than mitigation (e.g. decreasing atmospheric carbon).
Epidemiology, prevention, and treatment of human disease related to climate change all have translational science dimensions.
The overall intent of this event is to foster networking and develop collaborative teams to advance methods for successful engagement in this area.
