描述(由申请人提供) 国际环境流行病学学会(ISEE)第23届年会将于2011年9月13日至16日在西班牙巴塞罗那西班牙广场的巴塞罗那会议中心举行。主题是“环境流行病学的全貌”。调查人员将举行一系列关于流行病学、环境卫生和环境卫生政策的全体会议，有高调的演讲者，有关于该领域最新发展的座谈会，还有平行的会议，有海报和口头陈述。会议的一个特点是为新的研究人员和来自欠发达国家的研究人员安排联网的机会，并举行一系列正式培训班。ISEE 2011将把代表广泛兴趣的研究人员聚集在一起。原创研究报告、案例研究和研讨会将在空气和水质量、生殖结果、气候变化、暴露评估、风险评估、复杂混合物、儿童健康、干预研究、营养、社区对环境健康问题的反应、环境和空间流行病学方法(包括地理信息系统)等领域提交。与以往ISEE会议的传统一致，ISEE 2011将在论文和研讨会上保持较高的科学标准，以便在这些会议上进行活跃的讨论。ISEE旨在促进对健康和环境的研究。它为讨论健康和环境研究所特有的问题提供了一个论坛。世界各地的环境流行病学家和其他科学家都可以加入。ISEE提供了各种论坛，供讨论、批判性审查、合作和环境暴露及其对人类健康的影响的教育问题。2011年会议将旨在促进发展中国家成员的参与，并将举办专门针对发展中国家流行病学家的知识转让和发展合作的讲习班。 公共卫生相关性：这次ISEE会议在促进来自世界各地的领先环境流行病学家之间的对话方面发挥了重要作用。它还为年轻的科学家和学生提供了与更资深的调查人员互动的机会。最后，它已成为讨论前沿问题的主要场所之一，其主题是“环境流行病学的包罗万象”。2011年在西班牙巴塞罗那举行的会议将通过促进领先的环境科学家与研究人员和来自具有重大环境危害的发展中世界地区的公共卫生官员之间的跨国合作，大大加强对公共卫生的影响。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) The 23rd annual conference of the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology (ISEE) will be held at the Palau de Congresos de Barcelona in Plaza d'Espana, Barcelona, Spain from September 13-16, 2011. The theme is ""The Encompassing Face of Environmental Epidemiology". The investigators will have a mix of plenary sessions on epidemiology, environmental health and environmental health policy, with high-profile speakers, symposia on the latest developments in the field, and parallel sessions, with poster and oral presentations. A special feature of the meeting will be structured opportunities for networking for new researchers, for researchers from less-developed countries, and a series of formal training sessions. ISEE 2011 will bring together researchers representing a wide range of interests. Original research reports, case studies, and workshops will be presented in the areas of air and water quality, reproductive outcomes, climate change, exposure assessment, risk assessment, complex mixtures, children's health, intervention studies, nutrition, community responses to environmental health issues, methods in environmental and spatial epidemiology, including GIS, and much more. Consistent with the tradition of prior ISEE conferences, ISEE 2011 will maintain high scientific standards in the papers and workshops in order to generate lively discussion in these sessions. ISEE aims to foster the study of health and the environment. It provides a forum for the discussion of problems unique to the study of health and the environment. Membership is open to environmental epidemiologists and other scientists worldwide. ISEE provides a variety of forums for discussion, critical reviews, collaborations and education issues for environmental exposures and their human health effects. The 2011 conference will aim to facilitate the participation of members from developing countries, and will have workshops specifically aimed at knowledge transfer and developing collaborations for epidemiologists from developing countries. Public Health Relevance: This ISEE conference plays an important role in facilitating a dialogue among leading environmental epidemiologists from around the world. It also provides opportunities for young scientists and students to interact with more senior investigators. Finally, it has become known as one of the leading venues for discussion of cutting edge issues encompassed by its theme "The Encompassing Face of Environmental Epidemiology." The 2011 conference location in Barcelona, Spain will significantly enhance the public health impact by facilitating multi-national collaboration between leading environmental scientists with researchers and public health officials from regions of the developing world with major environmental hazards.
