2nd
Annual Poster Session
With support from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
and the American Bar Association, the Board of the Public Health
Law Association is pleased to present the 2nd Annual PHLA Public
Health Law Poster Session.
Eleven abstracts were selected through a competitive peer-reviewed
process and represent a broad range of topics, universities, and
programs of study at the intersection of law, policy and public
health. The topics selected range from the continuing lessons
learned from SARS, to research ethics, to HIPAA to “snack” taxes.
The student authors represent graduate programs in sociology,
public health, medicine, law, and the Fulbright Scholar program.
The interdisciplinary and diverse topics selected will be presented
by their student authors as posters during the conference. The
posters are on display throughout the conference and the authors
will be present during the Tuesday, June 13th exhibit breaks at
10:00 AM and 1:30 PM to explain their research findings. An award
for Best Poster will be presented at the reception held the evening
of Tuesday, June 13th.
In addition to the student authors, PHLA thanks Martha Brocato,
Susan Steeg, JD, the staff of CDC’s Public Health Law Program,
and the membership of the American Bar Association for their contributions
to the Poster Session. PHLA also thanks the universities and faculty
providing guidance and support to the student authors.
