What will the conference offer?

Social medicine is the study of health in its widest sense. It covers a range of subjects including epidemiology, the medical and health needs of society, health services, and the prevention of disease. This conference spans all research that addresses important issues in population health sciences and includes qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods approaches.

Everyone interested in population health sciences can come together to share information and network in a rigorous yet friendly atmosphere.

Who should attend?

Attendees span a wide range of disciplines including public health, epidemiology, social sciences, economics, psychology, health services research, disease prevention, policy and political science.

In recent years, SSM meetings have seen over 300 participants from across the world and the 2022 conference saw over 200 participants travel to Exeter. Participants ranged from students to senior academics, from policy makers to the wider public health community.
