I now live in New York and work at the International Research Institute for Climate Prediction - leading the health programme. We continue our work on malaria early warning in Africa and are now looking to see how the experiences gained there may be used in other areas of the world - particularly areas such as the South Pacific where the climate is fairly predictable. I was wondering if you were planning a health-climate focus at the meeting All the best Madeleine Thomson IRI Columbia University, New York Quoting "Skelly, Chris" : > > > We are now calling for Abstracts > > > > GeoHealth2004 > > 23-25 November 2004 > > Wellington, New Zealand > > > > www.geohealth2004.org > > > > The aim of GeoHealth2004 is to promote the exchange of ideas and sharing > > of experiences in the application of Health GeoInformatics to public > > health research and practice.
