Although most of you did not take part in the CDC presentation, this
might be of interest for your own classes and if you are planning a
TORCH proposal. (This applies especially to those who worked on the
emerging diseases and human effects of global climate change projects.)

I hope everyone's year is going beautifully. Meddie

If you're planning a proposal to WWNFF for a TORCH
Institute, the following message from Donna Stroup of the Centers for
Disease Control may be of interest.
"For TORCH programs incorporating the CDC EXCITE
(Excellence in Curriculum Integration through Teaching Epidemiology)
unit presented at the 1998 WWNFF Summer Biology Institute in Princeton.

CDC staff have offered to assist teachers conducting
TORCH Institutes in integrating the EXCITE curriculum. Assistance
includes consultation in the development of training materials,
suggestions of epidemiology professionals in the TORCH Institute
geographical area, or other assistance.
TORCH leaders may contact Gwen Ingraham, EXCITE
Coordinator, Epidemiology Program Office (Mail Stop C08), 1600 Clifton
Rd., NE, Atlanta, GA 30333; phone 404-639-3674, fax 404-639-3950; e-mail
gni1@cdc.gov <mailto:gni1@cdc.gov> <mailto:gni1@cdc.gov

We hope to see lots of proposals by November 15, 1998.
