Congratulations to the outstanding recipients of the 2026 ASPPH Excellence Awards, recognized last week at the Awards Luncheon during the  2026 ASPPH Annual Meeting. These distinguished individuals and institutions have made exceptional contributions to public health education, research, practice, and service. Their dedication, innovation, and leadership continue to advance the field and inspire the broader public health community.

We are proud to celebrate their achievements and the meaningful impact of their work in improving health outcomes and strengthening public health systems around the world.

The 2026 ASPPH Annual Meeting was a powerful reminder of the momentum and commitment across academic public health to improve the health and well-being of communities everywhere. As we reflect on this year’s gathering, we invite you to share your feedback to help shape future meetings. Please enjoy photos from the event and complete the Annual Meeting survey by Friday, April 3, 2026.

Looking ahead, nominations for the 2027 ASPPH Excellence Awards will open in late August, alongside the Annual Meeting Call for Proposals. We encourage you to consider nominating colleagues and partners who are making a difference in public health.

We also hope to see you next year at the 2027 ASPPH Annual Meeting, taking place March 17–19 in Baltimore, MD.
