Hello
Sorry for any cross-posting, and please note that this relates to a different meeting than that which advertised the other day.
The Health Equity Network (HEN) is holding a seminar on July 5th on Health Inequalities: Evidence, Policy and Implementation (organised by Mark Exworthy and hosted by the London School of Hygiene). Mark put all the effort into organising this meeting and we're very grateful to him. The finalised programme is pasted below.
There is no charge for attending, but RSVP is essential.
What I need to know now is whether you plan to attend this meeting. Attendance will be restricted to a maximum of 96 people, so please don't tell me that you will attend unless you're likely to do so. Your attendance will be guaranteed on a first-come first-served basis.
HEN will cover the travel expenses of up to two full time post-graduate students, again on a first-come first-served basis. If you are a full time student and want to attend, let me know.
Thanks
David
