2022 Virtual Conference

PHONZ Inc logo

The inaugural PHONZ Virtual Conference was held over three consecutive Fridays in July 2022, on the theme of “Better Health Through Intelligence”. With just shy of 270 registrations for the conference, the steering group were blown away by the popularity of the conference sessions. We are grateful to all those who presented talks for their contribution to the success of the event, and especially so to our keynote speakers, Dr Ayesha Verrall and Dr Ashley Bloomfield.

You can find recordings of the three conference sessions below.
