IEA To Hold Drawing For Free Airfare To Alaska
First Of Its Kind Offer For An Epidemiology Meeting

Organizers of the upcoming triennial meeting of the International Epidemiological Association in Anchorage Alaska next August will hold a drawing to distribute a free coach class airline ticket to a lucky epidemiologist who registers in March 2014. Registrants in March who do not win the random drawing will be re- entered to win hotel accommodations or a conference registration to be drawn in April and May. The airline ticket will be from the continental US, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, or Canada. Registrants will be eligible to win only one prize. Persons who have already registered by March 1 will be eligible to win a prize as well.  ■

 


"A portion of the funds collected for registration fees, goes to support bursaries for young, new epidemiologists from low to middle income countries.  We hope that by providing an incentive to register early, we will boost registration and be able to apply more funds to bring these young minds to the Congress.

While Alaska is truly a land like no other, Anchorage is an exciting, cosmopolitan and hospitable city at the edge of Alaska's great scenic wilderness.  With its unique blend of characteristics, no city better mixes Alaska's breathtaking natural beauty with modern amenities.  We look forward to sharing what this beautiful state has to offer with the participants of the 20th IEA World Congress of Epidemiology"
