We are thrilled to have you join us for this virtual gathering of esteemed researchers, scholars, and professionals from around the globe. Over the next two days, we will delve into critical discussions and presentations on environmental research and its implications for public health.
As we navigate through these unprecedented times, the importance of our collective efforts in understanding and addressing environmental challenges has become increasingly evident. This conference serves as a platform for exchanging ideas, sharing insights, and fostering collaborations that can drive meaningful change in the field of environmental research and public health.
The conference will be held on 13 September 2024, in London (GMT+1), and on 14 September 2024, in Tokyo (GMT+9). This dual-location format allows participants from different time zones to engage fully in the conference proceedings. We have curated a diverse program featuring keynote speeches, panel discussions, and paper presentations that promise to be both informative and inspiring.
We hope this conference will not only broaden your knowledge and understanding but also ignite new ideas and perspectives that will contribute to the advancement of environmental research and public health.
