INFORMS Healthcare: Invitation to Cluster

  • 1.  INFORMS Healthcare: Invitation to Cluster

    Dear INFORMS members: 

    Chaitra Gopalappa and myself are organizing a special cluster for the INFORMS Healthcare Conference in Rotterdam, Netherlands, July 2017.

    We are looking for both speakers and session organizers in all the following topics, broadly interpreted: 

    1) Disparities in healthcare within a particular national or regional or international context

    2) Health care in low income settings within developed countries (US, Europe, East Asia).  

    3) Health care in developing countries around the world

    4) Global health and spread of infectious diseases

    Again the interpretation is broad -- other related areas are also welcome. 

    If you are interested, please send myself (hbalasub at umass dot edu) or Chaitra Gopalappa (chaitrag at umass dot edu)
