SUMMARY:National Family Caregivers Month
DESCRIPTION:The theme for National Family Caregivers Month is “Caregiving Around the Clock.” \nCaregiving can be a 24-hours a day/7-days a week job. Caring for a senior with Alzheimer’s or a child with special needs can be non-stop. Providing care around the clock can crowd out other important areas of life.

What challenges do family caregivers face\, and how do they manage them day and night? \nSponsored by the Caregiver Action Network \nContact: info@caregiveraction.org \n(202) 454-3970

SUMMARY:The Science of Cancer Health Disparities in Racial/Ethnic Minorities and the Medically Underserved
DESCRIPTION:The AACR Cancer Health Disparities conferences advance the understanding and\, ultimately\, help to eliminate the disparities in cancer that represent a major public health problem in our country. \nBy promoting the exchange of novel ideas and information between a wide range of professionals from academia\, industry\, government\, and the community\, these conferences harness the potential and maximize the many opportunities for bringing research on health disparities from bench to bedside or community\, and back again. \nThe goals of these conferences have been to bring together scientists and other professionals working in a variety of disciplines to discuss the latest findings in the field and to stimulate the development of new research in cancer health disparities. \nFollow on Twitter: #AACRdisp17 \nSee the program.

DESCRIPTION:Since its start in 2015\, World Anti-Microbial Resistance Congress has set out to provide a platform for change on both the scientific and economic sides of the antimicrobial resistance space. Few other conferences in this area focus on both of these vitally important facets of the AMR issue and bring the leaders from each area together in one place to take steps toward finding collaborative solutions that optimize the best of both worlds.  \nThe World AntiMicrobial Resistance Congress gathers key stakeholders from government\, funding agencies\, pharma\, academia\, hospitals\, and payers to discuss the answers to all of these questions and more. The AMR review presented the world with a series of recommendations on how best to tackle AMR; now it is up to the stakeholders in these industries to come together and facilitate the implementation of these actions. \nThis conference presents solutions through key notes\, case study presentations\, expert opinion\, roundtable discussions and invites key influencers such as BARDA\, NIH\, FDA\, grant agencies\, pharma\, hospitals\, and academia\, in the AMR discussion.
