Symposium “Improving Air Quality and Health in Central and Eastern Europe with Evidence-Based Solutions”
Make sure you don’t miss the exciting ISEE Europe Chapter symposium, entitled Improving Air Quality and Health in Central and Eastern Europe with Evidence-based Solutions. The session will be co-chaired by Hanna Boogaard and Zorana Andersen and will take place on Monday August 31 at 2.15 PM. As governments and society act to improve air quality, there is a continuing need for research in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) to strengthen the regional evidence base. Such studies can also bolster local technical capacity and infrastructure, raise community awareness, and support evidence-based decision making. The role of scientists and civil society in shaping clean air policies has never been more critical, yet the pathways for effective engagement remain fraught with challenges. This symposium will feature the air quality progress that has been made in the CEE region, the challenges, best practice solutions, and lessons learned for future air quality action.
Symposium “Pesticides and Health: Policy Changes and Risk Reducing Interventions”
Join us at the scientific symposium on Pesticides and Health: Policy changes and risk reducing interventions on Sunday, August 30 at 5.00 - 6.30 PM organized by the ISEE Special Interest Group on Pesticides and Health and co-chaired by Konstantinos C. Makris and Brenda Eskenazi.
The ISEE Special Interest Group on Pesticides and Health is a global scientific community focused on i) advancing understanding of how pesticide exposures impact human health, ii) designing, testing and developing pesticide control options and related interventions for workers and the general population, including vulnerable subpopulation groups, iii) creating a forum for pesticide related policy changes. To this extent, this symposium will showcase cutting-edge research and policy updates at the intersection of pesticides and public health. Presentations in the symposium will explore latest policy changes or updates that affect public health and the environment such as the Omnibus simplification policy in the EU and updates on PFAS pesticides, or the California policy changes in proximity to agricultural pesticide use. Research presentations will focus on intervention studies that focus on pesticide risk reducing solution for the public and for agricultural workers.

ISEE Special Interest Group on Noise: Activities at ISEE
The ISEE Special Interest Group on Noise and Health is gearing up for an active year. We’ll be meeting in person at ISEE Munich (August 30 - September 2) in an early morning Special Interest Group session. We'll discuss our expanding leadership and working groups, and launch an ambitious plan for monthly events throughout 2026–2027, in collaboration with the International Commission on the Biological Effects of Noise (ICBEN) team 3, starting soon. In advance of ISEE Munich, we'll also share a full schedule of all noiseârelated talks and contributions. Don’t miss our noise symposium on Wednesday, September 2 at 1.45 - 3.15 PM (Room TBA)!
