WELCOME ADDRESS FROM ISEE PRESIDENT<br />
Manolis Kogevinas<br />
On behalf of the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology, it is my pleasure to welcome you to <strong>Rome</strong> for<br />
the 28th Annual Conference of our society. <strong>Rome</strong> is one of the most popular cities in the world for visitors and home<br />
of research centres with a long term record in excellence in research in environmental epidemiology. It is no surprise<br />
that the conference has a record large registration.<br />
The Conference Organizing Committee has planned an outstanding meeting focusing on both old and new challenges<br />
in environmental epidemiology that provides opportunities to discuss many of the environmental health issues facing<br />
our global environment. We hope you will take advantage of this opportunity to participate in interesting discussions,<br />
meet with colleagues, and forge new collaborations.<br />
I would like to thank Dr. Francesco Forastiere, Carla Ancona and Paola Michelozzi who have served as the Conference<br />
Scientific Committee co-chairs. I want to acknowledge all of their significant contributions and the efforts of their<br />
colleagues, staff, and volunteers in organizing the conference and also the numerous ISEE members who served in<br />
scientific committees of the conference.<br />
The success of the conference now rests on us, our presentations and participation. I encourage you to experience<br />
as much as you can, to meet new colleagues, to debate scientific perspectives, and to take some time to enjoy this<br />
wonderful city.<br />
Welcome to <strong>Rome</strong> and to the 2016 ISEE Conference.<br />
Manolis Kogevinas<br />
President ISEE<br />
