We will together with APHL be hosting the InFORM meeting in Atlanta in March next year. This is a combination of what in the past was the interactive PulseNet and OutbreakNet update meetings. If possible we would like to have a strategic planning meeting with PulseNet International in conjunction with it. However, we don't know at the moment if we will be able to support travel for anyone. However, this is an interesting meeting that would get even better with more international participation. Please join us in Atlanta or if you know anyone in your networks that would like to come please forward the invitation to them.
