Registration is now open for the 2011 Risk Science Symposium, and as I’m chairing it, I thought it worth giving a bit of a plug here.
The symposium brings together a fantastic cast of experts from very different backgrounds to explore the intersection of technology innovation and human health risk – with the aim of stimulating new thinking and ideas.
If you are grappling with emerging risk issues in industry, government, academia or the non-profit sector, this will be the place to be in September (not that I’m bias!).
A warning thought – space is limited to around 220 participants, so early registration is highly recommended.
Further details on the speakers, program and registration can be found here.
Some of the highlights include:
- An opening keynote by John Viera, Ford Motor Company Director of Sustainability Environment and Safety Engineering
- Insights from Paul Anastas, Science Advisor to the US EPA
- A UK perspective on technology innovation, risk and policy from James Wilsdon, Director of The Royal Society Science Policy Centre
- Cutting edge discussions on developments in science and technology that are pushing the boundaries of what is possible.
- Insights into emerging risk issues and innovative solutions
- A unique symposium dinner experience with designer Rodrigo Martinez from IDEO
- A chance to interact with some of the leading cross-disciplinary thought leaders on addressing emerging risk challenges.
