The objectives of this conference are to:
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 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.
