We are proud to announce the opening plenary session for the 2025 ASPPH Annual Meeting for Academic Public Health, The Role of Policies in Structural Determinants of Health. The session will be held on March 20, 2025 from 9:00 AM – 10:15 AM ET and will focus on how policies, socioeconomic factors, and systemic inequities have contributed to health disparities across populations and highlight exemplars of interventions and/or actions that have worked to bridge the gap.

Joining us to share their perspectives on this important topic are:

• Daniel E. Dawes, JD, Founding Dean, School of Global Health and Senior Vice President, Global Health, Meharry Medical College

Megan Ranney, MD, MPH, FACEP, Dean, Yale School of Public Health and chair of the annual meeting planning committee, will moderate this session.

We hope you can join us in March. As a reminder, registration and housing are now open.
