The conference begins on Monday, 22 March 2010 and consists of a series of plenary sessions, regular sessions, and poster sessions spread out over the week. The conference is planned around the guiding themes/science question, with each policy-relevant science question being addressed to the extent possible by its own plenary session, each consisting of two to four experts on the subject. Five regular, one each day, and four poster sessions (Mon.-Thurs.) are planned, to support the plenary sessions occurring on that day. Friday’s plenary session on policy implications will also include a conference summary. Abstract submission is open from August 1, 2009 until October 9, 2009. Use the abstract submission link below to submit your abstract. Companies showing their state-of-the-art products, in a larger than usual exhibition for AAAR, will allow you the opportunity to learn from and interact with leading vendors offering instrumentation and services in aerosol science and technology related to air pollution and health. This conference will be held at the Sheraton San Diego Hotel and Marina, located in San Diego, California, 22-26 March 2010. We encourage you to make your hotel reservations early and directly with the hotel at 866-716-8130. Fax: (619) 692-2337. Ask for AAAR's group rate. CONFERENCE OBJECTIVES: 1) Bring together researchers from across the source-to-health outcomes paradigm (NRC 1998) to engage in discussion and rigorous debate regarding the latest information on linking adverse health effects of air pollution to emissions sources and atmospheric pollutants. 2) Communicate effectively the latest information to scientists, air quality mangers in the public and private sectors, and policy makers in support of developing efficient and cost effective approaches to decreasing acute and chronic adverse health effects from air pollution on community and regional scales. The conference theme is multi-pollutant focusing on the sources, fate, and health effects of ambient air pollutants. The meeting is designed to appeal to a large interdisciplinary international audience. 3) Highlight findings from major measurement, data analysis, and modeling studies and programs conducted since the last AAAR PM and health conference in 2003. Papers and presentations that show linkages from sources to air quality and/or air quality to health outcomes are strongly encouraged. 4) Add significantly to the peer-reviewed literature by publishing research results presented at the conference in a variety of special issues of selected journals and or synthesis papers. |
