| This years symposium has the title "The Science Behind The Headlines" and it focuses on selected research areas within "Environmental Chemistry and Health" having made big headlines within the last 3-4 years. The topics and speakers are: Marianne Glasius (Aarhus University): Air pollution from wodden stoves; Ulla Hass (DTU): Endochrine disrupters; Carsten Suhr Jacobsen (GEUS): Pesticides in the groundwater; Karsten Arnbjerg-Nielsen (DTU): Climate change and urban storm water. The invited speakers will present the science they have been working with and they will comment on how their research has been presented in the press and compare it to the actual science behind the big headlines. The second part of the Envirosymp comprise oral and poster presentations by the MSc and Ph.D. students including an evaluation/feed back part. The third part of the symposium is a workshop to train presentation and communicatin skills, in particular how do you communicate to the press, how do you send a clear message when you contact the industry, write an application or apply for a job?
