APHA Conference

November 1, 2026
9AM PST
San Antonio

Visit us at Booth 1324 in San Antonio and see Dedoose in action!

Every year, public health researchers use Dedoose to make sense of interviews, focus groups, open-ended surveys, and community voices. At APHA 2026, a group of those researchers are presenting their findings. Their work covers a wide range of topics and populations, and every project rests on careful, rigorous analysis using Dedoose. We’re proud to have been part of their process! Below you’ll find some APHA 2026 presentations whose abstract mentions Dedoose, with times and locations, so you can catch these sessions in person. We hope to see you at Booth 1324!
