EveryoneJoin Us: A 70th Birthday Symposium Celebrating Dr. Donna Spiegelman's Distinguished Career in Biostatistics and Epidemiology
Friday, October 3rd, 2025
Join us for a one-day conference honoring Dr. Donna Spiegelman’s distinguished career in biostatistics, epidemiology, public health, and implementation science. Dr. Spiegelman has led research on preventing cervical cancer, cardiometabolic risks, and HIV/AIDS across many countries. Her work focuses on reducing bias in epidemiologic research, advancing measurement error methods, and innovating quantitative implementation science.
The event will feature experts in biostatistics and epidemiology, causal inference, implementation science, and measurement error methods. We will end the day by cutting a cake for this legendary scholar’s 70th birthday!
This event is being jointly hosted by the Yale School of Public Health (YSPH), Public Health Data Science and Data Equity (DSDE), and the Center for Methods in Implementation and Prevention Science (CMIPS).
