Different awards are for specific career stages ranging from senior scientists (John Goldsmith Award for Outstanding Contributions to Environmental Epidemiology), mid-career (Tony McMichael Mid-Term Career Award), and new investigator (Rebecca James Baker Award).
We are also asking for nominations for the Research Integrity Award and the Best Environmental Epidemiology Paper Award.
In addition, there are SNRN best abstract awards for students and early career researchers participating in the annual conferences as well as a new award for the best abstract from low and middle-income countries (LMICs). LMIC Awards are aimed at ISEE members with more than 5-years’ experience since their terminal degree (Masters or Doctorate).
Applications are also open to become an ISEE Fellow here.
New Program Provides Writing Assistance
ISEE now provides manuscript editing assistance to existing and new members!

Invitation to Join the Ethics and Philosophy Committee
Environmental epidemiologists have increasingly found themselves under attack in the past several years. If you are interested in working with colleagues on issues such as evaluation of the effects of undisclosed conflicts of interest and suppression of scientific research, please consider joining the Ethics and Philosophy Committee. One of ISEE’s oldest Committees, we aim to strengthen and promote ethics and philosophy in environmental epidemiology. For more details, contact Committee Chair Ruth Etzel or visit our website for additional information. You can request to join a committee by logging in here.

Policy Committee
Commitment to the Climate Change Fight
The 26th Conference of the Parties (COP26) was expected to be remarkable, since for the first time, health co-benefits entered the agenda. However, their appearance was almost imperceptible and had no space at the negotiation tables. The ISEE Policy Committee is committed to continuing the push for health co-benefits to lead the climate negotiation. And so, during late 2021 we published two sister commentaries where we reviewed the state-of-the-art evidence for climate action and health co-benefits, discussed untapped opportunities to improve health through ambitious climate actions in cities, and provided suggestions based on a collaborative and system-thinking framework. Each commentary was developed to address different audiences: one for policymakers and stakeholders (here), and the other for researchers (here). Both commentaries were open access and endorsed by ISEE and the International Society for Urban Health (ISUH).
This effort was led by Dr Audrey de Nazelle (co-chair of the ISEE Policy Committee) and a team of ISEE and ISUH members: Dr Maya Negev (ISEE), Dr Gudrun Weinmayr (ISEE), Aina Roca-Barcelo (ISEE) , Dr Charlie Roscoe (ISEE), Prof Mark J. Nieuwenhuijsen (ISEE), Prof Kristie L. Ebi (ISEE), Prof Carlos Dora (ISUH) and Dr Giselle Sebag (ISUH).
You are invited to submit algorithms predicting PM2.5 and/or NO2 by March 21, 2022 for the chance to win cash prizes, using satellite data and any other desired inputs!
