The ISEA Distinguished Lecturer Program

The ISEA offers two Distinguished Lecturers as speakers on topics in exposure science and analysis for 2008: Professor Matti Jantunen, research professor at the Finnish National Public Health Institute - KTL - Department of Environmental Health in Kupio, Finland, and Professor Kees van Leeuwen, Principal Scientist at TNO, Quality of Life, The Netherlands. Click here for more information about Professor Jantunen and Professor van Leeuwen. Both lecturers are available for speaking engagements. The ISEA subsidizes travel for the speakers as needed.

The purpose of the Distinguished Lecturer Program is to stimulate interest and enhance recognition of exposure analysis science. The program makes outstanding speakers in the science of exposure available for education and promotion purposes to qualifying institutions and organizations. The ISEA will sponsor the travel of the Distinguished Lecturers.

Institutions and organizations interested in learning more about the field of exposure analysis or expanding their expertise in exposure analysis are encouraged to request a speaker.
