The agenda will also provide overall guidance for CDC's intramural and
extramural research as well as serve as an effective planning and
communication tool for CDC's public health research.
The public is invited to participate in the development of the CDC-Wide
Research Agenda. The CDC will host four Research Agenda Development Public
Participation Meetings. These events will give researchers, representatives of
CDC key partner organizations and the public the
opportunity to voice their opinions regarding the future direction of
CDC's public health research.
Attendance by the public will be limited to the space available. All those
wishing to attend any of the meetings must register. See specific meeting above
for date of registration. To register, please visit
