Legal Epidemiology in Law Enforcement and Public Health Conference 2021
– Live Conference – March 17-19, 2021
The Temple University Center for Public Health Law Research will convene a satellite conference in conjunction with the 2021 Global Law Enforcement and Public Health (LEPH) Conference in March 2021.
