We want to recognize and thank the members of the planning committee for the 2025 ASPPH Annual Meeting for Academic Public Health for their thoughtful input and guidance. Additionally, thank you to everyone who has already submitted proposals, nominated colleagues for awards, and volunteered to serve as reviewers. If you haven't had the chance yet, there is still time. The deadline for submissions and nominations is Friday, October 11, at 11:59 PM PT.
