Environmental Pathologies,
reality and challenges in Public Health.

The first European Congress on Environmental Pathologies aims to respond to the need for discovery, understanding and action in our daily lives.

If we consider both our indoor environment, where we spend 80% of our time, and our outside environment, we notice that profound changes have taken place in our living spaces.

As our homes and workplaces become increasingly protected, isolated and confined, these new factors can have a negative impact on our health. Our way of life has been changed by the numerous improvements in the prevention of disease and in particular the drive towards the use of new materials.

Microparticles, nanotechnologies, electromagnetic waves and global warming are new terms for everyone but also for the doctor who may ask the questions:

• What is the environment for scientists specialising in earth,
     life and man?
• How does man adapt to and has adapted to the environment
     in which he lives or has lived?
• What methods would allow us to demonstrate the
     responsibility of the environmental factors in the origin of
     certain diseases?
• What approaches can we use to review diseases associated
     with the environment?
