The first Central and Eastern European Environmental Health Conference was convened in Prague, Czech Republic, on October 24, 2004. This conference had three primary objectives: 1. To gather scientists and students from the USA and Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) to discuss the magnitude of the problems in specific regions of Central and Eastern Europe; 2. To discuss improved methods for assessing exposure including biomarkers of exposure and integrated methods for predicting dose; and, 3. To discuss specific health effects associated with exposure to chemicals at these sites with a focus on developmental and reproductive health.
