Notice to Readers: Satellite Broadcast on Breast Cancer Screening
CDC, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Public Health, the Association of Schools of Public Health, and the Public Health Training Network will cosponsor "Breast Cancer Screening: More Than Just Mammograms," on September 29, 1999, at 2-3 p.m. eastern time. The broadcast will be delivered through satellite downlink to sites nationwide and through an Internet webcast. Continuing education credit will be offered for various professions based on 1 hour of instruction.
This second in the series of Public Health Grand Rounds will feature a case demonstrating how a screening program can save lives. Participants will discuss the challenges of screening programs and the strategies implemented to meet them. The goal of this program is to promote a leadership-level national dialogue on breast cancer screening and the outreach efforts of state and local public health agencies.
This videoconference targets professionals from local, state, and federal health agencies; community and women's health centers; academic institutions; managed-care organizations; and others who want to learn more about breast cancer and improve the life expectancy of women at risk.
Registration for downlink sites and program participants is available only on the World-Wide Web at http://www.PublicHealthGrandRounds.unc.edu. There is no registration fee, but all participants must register to ensure adequate seating at satellite sites.
