IMED 2016: Vienna, Austria- Freud Museum and Opening Plenary

The official IMED 2016 program began this afternoon.

In the morning, I popped by the Sigmund Freud House and Museum, both the residence and medical office of the father of psychoanalysis.

To quote Freud: The times are gloomy. Fortunately it is not my job to brighten them.

The opening plenary session provided a rich roster of speakers offering unique perspectives on global disease surveillance and data collection to guide policy and better coordinate public health response to emerging pathogens.


More to follow, tomorrow.
