And that’s a wrap! The International Population Data Linkage Conference drew more than 500 researchers and practitioners from around the world to share the latest research, exchange ideas, and forge new connections.

Abstracts summarizing the fantastic IPDLN presentations have been made available through partnership with the International Journal of Population Data Science (IJPDS), official publisher of IPDLN. View the abstracts here.

For the first time ever, the conference was hosted in the United States. Attendees took advantage of Chicago’s world-class attractions and sampled local foods in between conference proceedings. Co-hosts of the conference were: Abel Kho, MD, Director of the Institute for Artificial Intelligence in Medicine (I.AIM) at Northwestern University; Amy O’Hara, PhD, Research Professor in the Massive Data Institute at Georgetown University; and Dennis Culhane, PhD, Professor at University of Pennsylvania.
