Welcome from Raj Bhopal,
Chairman, Executive Committee of the Congress

Scotland will be your host for the world’s international epidemiology and public health ‘party’ in 2011. It is my privilege to invite you to join us. Please come to the International Epidemiological Association’s showcase, triennial event.

The Congress theme is reflected in the title: “Changing populations, changing diseases: Epidemiology for Tomorrow’s World.” Within this future-orientated theme we will discuss the full span of research across the many disciplines contributing to our science and practice.

The Congress partners who are hosting the conference include the four academic departments leading epidemiology and public health in Scotland (in the Universities of Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow) and NHS Health Scotland. Congress committees-see below- are poised to deliver to you a memorable, low-cost (subsidised) academic and social programme in one of the most spectacular cities in the world.

I look forward to welcoming you personally at the Congress.

Yours sincerely

Raj Bhopal CBE, DSc (hon), MD, MPH
Chairman: Executive Committee of the Congress
Bruce and John Usher Professor of Public Health
