NCKU hosts annual conference of IMGA - noodls
Tainan, Taiwan, May 14, 2013
National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), southern Taiwan, hosts the 2nd Annual Academic Conference of International Medical Geology Association (IMGA) Taiwan Chapter, May 14, with nearly 150 experts in the fields related to Geology sharing the latest research findings.
NCKU President Hwung-Hweng Hwung welcomes the guest and said, "I wish the IMGA Taiwan members could bring in an effective strategy to copy with the environmental disease problems by incorporating environmental, biological, and medical scientists so that our living environment can be better improved."
Hwung also said, "I would like to express my gratitude to Chairman Jiin-Shuh Jean to set up the IMGA Taiwan Chapter at NCKU and to the organizing committee to host this conference every year."
"I hope that Editor-in-Chief Laurent Charlet and Distinguished Researcher Te-Chang Lee can assist this Chapter to grow and bring in an integrated collaboration research among NCKU, Academia Sinica, and University of Joseph Fourier Grenoble I," Hwung added.
"Taiwan has suffered from soil and water pollution-related health problems. It really poses a health threat to Taiwan residents," said Science college of NCKU who added that the theme of this conference, linking medical, biological, environmental, geological, and geochemical sciences, will discuss important medical geology issues.
Chairman Jean who is also a professor from Department of Earth Sciences, NCKU, said, "To increase the quality of life and reduce potential environmental epidemics, the conference is expecting to combine "medical," "biology," "geology," and "environmental sciences and engineering" to find out the relationship between them."
Editor-in-Chief Laurent Charlet of Journal of Hydrology and Distinguished Researcher Te-Chang Lee in Academia Sinica of Taiwan present their keynote lectures in the conference.
Charlet gives a talk on "Exposure to mental(loid)s, body barriers and (neurodegenerative) diseases: a medical geochemistry case study" and Lee, "Sustained Arsenic Stress Induces Epigenetic Alterations."
