DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Central and Eastern European countries have severe environmental problems, most of which stem from poor practices in the pre-transformation era, that seriously affect human health. These nations are struggling to address the impacts, but lack adequate scientific resources, training, technology and policy. The overall goal of this conference is to share knowledge and expertise on the underlying interrelation of human health and environmental exposures by bringing together international experts to present advances in the field of environmental sciences, engineering, and technology and health sciences. It will build upon the synergy between US and Eastern and Central European Scientists that was developed in previous conferences in Cluj Napoca (2008), Bratislava (2006), and Prague (2004). We anticipate that this effort will increase the expertise in the region, train a new generation of scientists, and foster opportunities for new collaborations. We have received a very positive response from researchers from the United States and other Countries who have expressed their support for the conference and pledged involvement in organizing the meeting, soliciting the participation of other researchers, and actively participating in the meeting itself. Among those experts are: Eugen Gurzau (Babes Bolyai University, Romania), David Carpenter (Institute for Health and the Environment, University of Albany, SUNY, USA), Anthony Szema (Stony Brook University, School of Medicine, USA), Stephania Cormier (University of Tennessee Health Science Center, USA), Tony Fletcher (Public Health England & London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, UK), Souhail R. Al-Abed (US EPA), Barry Dellinger (Chemistry Department, Louisiana State University, USA), Radim Sram (Institute of Experimental Medicine AS, Czech Republic). As a product of this conference we are planning to publish conference presentations in the special issue of "Central European Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine". These proceedings can then be used as an instructional material for the environmental problems and solutions in the region.

描述(由申请人提供)： 中东欧国家存在严重的环境问题，其中大部分源于转型前的不良做法，严重影响人类健康。这些国家正在努力应对这些影响，但缺乏足够的科学资源、培训、技术和政策。这次会议的总体目标是通过聚集国际专家介绍环境科学、工程、技术和健康科学领域的进展，分享关于人类健康和环境暴露之间潜在相互关系的知识和专业知识。它将建立在美国与东欧和中欧科学家之间的协同作用基础上，这种协同作用是在之前在克卢日纳波卡(2008年)、布拉迪斯拉发(2006年)和布拉格(2004年)举行的会议上发展起来的。我们预计，这一努力将增加该地区的专业知识，培养新一代科学家，并促进新的合作机会。我们从美国和其他国家的研究人员那里得到了非常积极的回应，他们表示支持这次会议，并承诺参与组织会议，征集其他研究人员的参与，并积极参与会议本身。这些专家包括：Eugen Gurzau(罗马尼亚Babes Bolyai大学)、David Carpenter(美国奥尔巴尼大学健康与环境研究所)、Anthony Szema(美国石溪大学医学院)、Stephania Cormier(美国田纳西大学健康科学中心)、Tony Fletcher(英国公共卫生与伦敦卫生与热带医学院)、Souhail R.Al-Abed(美国环保局)、Barry Dellinger(美国路易斯安那州立大学化学系)、Radim Sram(捷克共和国实验医学研究所)。作为这次会议的产物，我们计划在《中欧职业与环境医学杂志》的特刊上发表会议报告。这些会议记录可作为该区域环境问题和解决办法的教学材料。
