ABSTRACT

In 2023, the inaugural Public Health Informatics and Technology Conference was established as a hybrid, 3-day conference at the University of California, San Diego and virtually. The PHIAT Conference welcomed academic researchers, businesses working in health IT data platforms, and professionals in public health departments. The conference’s goal was to establish a forum for academics and public health organizations to discuss and tackle new opportunities and challenges in public health informatics and technology. This paper overviews the quest for interest, speakers and topics, evaluation from the attendees, and lessons learned to be implemented in future conferences.
