NIH Research Festival: A Celebration of Intramural Science Plenary Session II: Responding to Public Health Emergencies
This plenary session will focus on the many ways that the NIH Intramural Research Program (IRP) has served a crucial role in various public health emergencies. From assessing radiation dangers after the Japanese tsunami and nuclear accident, to developing an Ebola vaccine and treating infected individuals, to tracing the origins of recent food-borne disease outbreaks through genomic analysis, the NIH IRP continues to be among the "first responders" to protect the nation's and the world's health.For more information go to http://researchfestival.nih.gov/2015/plenary_sessions.shtmlAir date: 9/17/2015 10:15:00 AM
