What does widespread public interest in the links between health and environment mean for health care professionals?  For environmental professionals? For faculty who teach them? Are we prepared for the questions we will be asked? Can we communicate effectively with patients, students, and colleagues about risk and causation?  Join us as we explore these issues at a conference on environment and health on April 5 and 6, 2001 in Columbia. 

The conference is designed to bring together practitioners from both health and environmental professions, in order to establish communication networks, share knowledge, and identify areas for future work.  Technology and tools to assist practitioners will be demonstrated both in a conference session and through exhibits. Use the link below to see the draft agenda.
