About The Epidemiology Monitor |
|
EpiMonitor is epidemiology for epidemiologists.
We distill and summarize the latest epidemiological news, provide
a comprehensive list of job opportunities and collaborations, list
upcoming conferences and professional development opportunities
to advance careers, and highlights news on epidemiologists. This
community is refuge from our broad
and often siloed field by providing a space for critical
discussions, and opportunities for continued education and
training.
EpiMonitor was founded in 1980 by Roger H. Bernier, Ph.D, MPH, who
served as Editor and Publisher for 40 years while working at the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 2022, EpiMonitor
was acquired by Katelyn Jetelina, MPH PhD. The office is currently
located in Southern California.
