Clean Air Carolina’s annual NC BREATHE Conference provides an interactive forum for North Carolinians to share the latest research related to the impacts air pollution has on human health, the environment, and the economy, and to discuss the critical role policy making plays.
Call for Posters
We are pleased to announce a Call for Posters on research presentations for the 2020 NC BREATHE Conference. The conference will focus on the theme of “Climate Crisis, Health and Equity in North Carolina.” It will feature research on the impacts of air quality and climate change on equity, health, economics, and the environment. From the submissions, three abstract authors will be selected to give a short lightning talk presentation about their poster and research following the lunch session. The deadline for abstract submission is midnight March 1, 2019. The conference will take place April 9, 2019, at UNC Charlotte Center City. For any abstract-related questions or comments, please email Rachel McIntosh-Kastrinsky at [email protected].
