Call for Papers

COVID-19 Public Health and Social Measures (PHSMs) Research Outcome Conference takes place on October 5-7, 2021 and provides a forum for scholars to share and exchange information on research findings based on the policy tracker datasets that are produced by PHSM Network members. It will cover a diverse spectrum across disciplines from epidemiology over social science to policy and economics and we aim to include voices and views from different backgrounds, both professionally and geographically. The conference will be held online. The registration fee to cover the IT infrastructure will be below 5 USD.
