The AAAS Arctic Division announces the 2009 Arctic Science Conference:
Impact of Environment on Human Health - Interdisciplinary Science and
Education. The conference will be held in Juneau, Alaska, 14-16
September 2009.

The International Polar Year (IPY) offered an opportunity to investigate
the Arctic System and to establish international collaborations between
researchers, educators and policy makers. In order to respond and adapt
to what has been learned, this conference provides an opportunity to
explore the outcomes of international collaborative science,
engineering, and education research resulting from IPY. This is a good
starting point for discussion on the impact of a changing environment on
health.

Anyone interested in submitting an abstract for the 2009 Arctic Science
Conference can do so online at http://arctic.aaas.org./. The abstract
submission deadline is 1 August 2009.

Registration will be available online at http://arctic.aaas.org./
beginning 1 May 2009. Please visit the website for information regarding
discounted rates at the Westmark Baranof Juneau, the conference hotel.
