Description

The 5th International Congress of CiiEM (IC CiiEM) took place on 16–18 June 2021, as a multidisciplinary scientific online forum focused on Reducing Inequalities in Health and Society. The congress brought together experts from several fields to present their latest findings, experiences and proposals. It included topics such as Personalized Health Intervention, Infectious Diseases and Improving Global Health, Decoding the Role of the Environment and Digital Transformation in Health. Over the course of the three exciting days, 36 invited keynote speakers presented their work, along with several free communications. During the last afternoon, six thematic sessions ran simultaneously, where more than 30 specialists discussed various topics related to specific areas of knowledge. It was a fruitful scientific event, and a model towards a more comprehensive approach to the current and future challenges in Health and Society.
