Media Services

The Public Health Agency of Canada is the organization responsible for running the media office for the Conference. We want to help you communicate important health information to Canadians, through publicizing the work of immunization researchers. Expert spokespeople are available for comment.

The Conference is hosted by the Public Health Agency of Canada, Center for Immunization and Respiratory Infectious Diseases in collaboration with the Canadian Association of Immunization Research and Evaluation (CAIRE), the Canadian Paediatric Society (CPS) and the Canadian Public Health Association (CPHA) representing the organizations involved in vaccinology health. This structure encourages specialists working in different areas of vaccinology, from basic researchers to clinicians to people delivering community health programs, to share knowledge and build on strengths. This Conference is not just about research – it’s about integrating research into the advancements in vaccines and immunization practices and programs.
