From September 16-19, 2007 nearly 300 industry, labor, Federal, state and local agency representatives participated in a 3-day Avian Influenza Conference: Protecting Avian Influenza Responders in Bethesda, MD. The conference, jointly sponsored by the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences Worker Education and Training Program (NIEHS WETP) and the US Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (USDA-APHIS), brought together agencies and organizations that may be involved in an avian influenza (AI) response to discuss, coordinate, and participate in a practice exercise for such an incident. Presentations and breakout sessions focused on online tools, courses, and training, education, outreach and communication initiatives designed to help protect responders during an outbreak.  Below is the conference's agenda, attendees list, presentations, and breakout group reports.
