Mission
The International
Society for Environmental Epidemiology (ISEE) provides a forum for the
discussion of problems unique to the study of health and the environment.
With membership open to environmental epidemiologists and other scientists
worldwide, ISEE provides a variety of forums for discussions, critical
reviews, collaborations and education on issues of environmental exposures
and their human health effects. These include annual meetings, newsletters,
workshops and liaisons with academic, governmental, inter-governmental,
non-profit and business institutions.
Philosophy
To foster
the study of health and the environment, ISEE encourages and supports
the following:
·
Epidemiological studies on the health effects of environmental
exposures
·
Communication among epidemiologists, toxicologists, exposure
analysts, and other environmental scientists and moral philosophers worldwide
·
Innovative approaches to substantive or methodologic problems
and applications of environmental epidemiology
·
The use of environmental epidemiology to inform public policy
·
Involvement of scientists from developing countries in ISEE
activities, reduced dues for members from developing countries and establishment
of regional ISEE chapters throughout the developing world.
