Inhaled Particles symposium

Inhaled Particles XI (IPXI), to be held at Nottingham Conference Centre, at Nottingham Trent University, will take a multi-disciplinary approach, addressing topics within exposure, for example controls, instrumentation and measurement; hazards, including deposition, clearance, particokinetics, toxicology, and mechanisms of disease; risk assessment, for example epidemiology, health impacts and links with policy.

BOHS is inviting all researchers who work on exposure, metrology, epidemiology, toxicology and risk assessment in particle-associated diseases to attend the latest meeting.
