• Collaborative Environment: Join a diverse group of healthcare experts, industry leaders, and scientists to tackle critical surface cleanability issues.
• Lasting Impact: Form working task forces that continue throughout the year, ensuring your ideas translate into real-world strategies for improvement.

Key Goals: 

• Share, debate, and identify gaps and projects that address key issues
• Identify needed research projects
• Develop actionable strategies for improvement and form working task forces for the year
