In this series, we bring the seminar to you instead of you coming to the seminar. This is in direct response to requests from our EHRN members to have more seminars and webinars. Since Internet access and band width is a concern for many of our members, we decided to ask leading environmental health scientists and experts to contribute an environmental health 'hot topic' presentation to the Lecture Series and we will email it to all of our members every second month or so.
