2024.08.11-18 - Joint Conference of ISEH ICEPH & ISEG on Environment and Health
The Joint Conference of ISEH (International Symposium on Environment and Health), ICEPH (International Conference on Environmental Pollution and Health) and ISEG (Environmental Symposium on Environmental Geochemistry) will be held in Galway, Ireland. The conference was originally planned in 2020. Due to the outbreak of Covid-19, it is postponed until August 11-18, 2024. The format of this conference is in-person!
The conference series of ISEH (International Symposium on Environment and Health), ICEPH (International Conference on Environmental Pollution and Health) and ISEG (Environmental Symposium on Environmental Geochemistry) provide internationally leading platforms for interaction between scientists, consultants, and public servants engaged in the multi-disciplinary areas of environment and health. With the fast economic development, the importance of environment and health is increasingly recognized in the world. There is a growing demand for international experts to work together on this emerging topic of common interest. Meanwhile, in the big data era, we are facing new challenges and opportunities. This conference provides a timely opportunity for a direct communication between international experts, and helps to foster and develop international collaborations.

2023. May.10 - International online conference on combating neonatal, maternal and child deaths from ionising radiation exposure around gold and uranium mines in Sud-Saharan Africa: A Medical Geology perspective - Invited speaker Dr. Theo C. Davies
The exposure of pregnant women to ionizing radiation in Sub-Saharan Africa has long been a source of concern, and many questions related to this problem still remain unanswered. There is an urgent need to study the incidence of neonatal, maternal and child deaths in areas of the Sub-Continent with high exposure to ionizing radiation exposure due to mining. It has been known that there is a high percentage of neonatal deaths due to fetal abnormalities or congenital malformations from ionizing radiation exposure in major uranium and gold mining countries where good morbidity estimates exist, e.g., South Africa. In this seminar, we hope to demonstrate unequivocally that the inclusion of Medical Geologists in teams investigating the effects of ionizing radiation exposure on pregnancy outcomes (neonatal and child radiation-related morbidity and mortality) in major uranium and gold mining countries in Sub-South Africa can lead to much improved prognosis, diagnoses and therapy, as well as prevention and other forms of intervention, such as legal, for these conditions.
