Each year, the Mount Sinai Global Health Center selects a special theme designed to highlight a specific area in global health. Our intent is to provide an opportunity for conference attendees to explore recent scientific developments and to create a forum for interdisciplinary interactions.

The target audience includes physicians, medical students, public health professionals and students, employees of non-governmental organizations, academics, activists, community leaders and educators.
