"The PHO Conference is designed from the start to be practical and to support PROMIS users with the most pressing needs in research and clinical implementation. The presentations address applied issues, and I find the audience is a great mix of researchers and practitioners."

"The annual PHO conference is incredible for the research presented, but it offers much more than the latest research; it's the conversations, the energy, and the chance to be part of a community that's pushing things forward."
