The aim of SESEH is to promote collaborations withChina. The SESEH 2012 provides an internationally leading platform for interaction between scientists, consultants, and public servants engaged in the multi-disciplinary areas of environment and health. With the fast economic growth, the importance of environment and health is widely recognized inChina, andChinawelcomes international experts for collaboration. This symposium provides an opportunity for a direct communication between experts fromChinaand the rest of the world, and helps to foster and develop international collaborations withChina, the 2nd largest economy of the world.
The theme of environment and health is one of the most challenging issues that human beings are currently facing. With the economic development and improvement of our quality of life, the environment around us is under pressure, and often deteriorating. This has raised many questions that require answers: Is the air we breathe still fresh? Is the water we drink still clean? Is the food we eat still safe? This conference brings together international experts in Galway to discuss these questions. The themes cover a wide range of topics including: Advanced Medical Mineralogy, Air Quality, Bioavailability and bioaccessibility, Clays, Coal and Health, Cryptosporidium, Environmental Health, Environmental Health in Buildings, Environmental Management, Environmental Sensors, GIS and Quantitative Methods, Land Use and Soil Environment, Microbiology, Pharmaceuticals, POPs and Pesticides, Sediment Pollution, Soil Remediation, Soil Threats, Smart Wastewater Treatment, and Water Quality.
There were a total of 6 internationally leading experts serving as keynote speakers of SESEH 2012: Professor Ming-Hung Wong, Professor Shu Tao, Professor Xiaoying Zheng, Professor Derek Clements-Croome, Professor Jerome Nriagu, and Professor William Manning. In addition, the world-renowned Medical Geology Short Course was successfully held as a pre-conference workshop of SESEH 2012, led by Dr. Jose Centeno, Dr. Olle Selinus, Dr. Bob Finkelman, and Dr. Maurice Mulcahy.
To complement the academic programme of the conference, two conference fieldtrips have been organised to the Burren and Cliffs of Moher, and Connemara and Kylemore Abbey
A special section in Environmental Pollution and a special issue in Environmental Geochemistry and Health are under preparation. One best student poster and two best student oral presentations were awarded.
