corner” where researchers and policy professionals meet, AcademyHealth
helps its members learn from one another and share information through
scientific and policy conferences, professional training and career development
opportunities, and a variety of cross-disciplinary publications.
Individual
and organizational members receive registration discounts for AcademyHealth
meetings, complimentary subscriptions or reduced rates on more than 30
leading health publications, and a wide variety of other venues through
which individuals can network, and organizations can gain valuable exposure.
