2026 Public Health Student Poster Session

Join the Section on Public Health & Preventive Medicine’s annual Student Poster Session, showcasing regional public health research by students and professionals from public health and related disciplines. 

This year’s event will feature a wide range of topics, from infectious diseases to social determinants of health. Students will present their research on the incidence and prevalence of infectious diseases, intervention strategies for chronic disease and injury prevention, and share new insights into many other public health issues. 

Please RSVP to view and celebrate the accepted research posters from students across the Philadelphia region. This gathering not only showcases academic excellence but also brings together students and professionals in public health, offering opportunities to network, share ideas, and engage in meaningful conversations about current and emerging issues affecting public health. Your participation will enrich our community's dialogue and contribute to the advancement of public health practice and policy. 

This event is sponsored by the Arthur Parker Hitchens Endowment Fund, which began in 1960 in support of Public Health and Preventive Medicine.
