Operational Medicine Symposium Announced

Defense Strategies Institute (DSI) announces the Operational Medicine Symposium taking place on January 23-24, 2019, at the Parma Payne Goodall Alumni Center in San Diego, California.

San Diego, CA, November 02, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Due to the significant advances in operational medicine and preventative equipment, the Nation’s Warfighters have had the highest survival rate in modern history. However, there is still significant work to be done. DoD medical officials must actively engage with commercial partners to deliver the most up to date and technologically advanced techniques and equipment to ensure our Warfighters are ready pre-deployment, on the field, and post-deployment.

In response to the need for all service members to invest in readiness tools and techniques and medical modernization resources to create capabilities to enhance and support warfighter’s needs on the battlefield, DSI will host the Operational Medicine Symposium on January 23-24, 2019. This symposium will take place on January 23-24, 2019, at the Parma Payne Goodall Alumni Center in San Diego, California.
