The last preparations for ISBNPA 2007 in Oslo


Next month the 7th annual meeting of the International Society of Behavioral Nutrition and Physical Activity (ISBNPA) will take place in Oslo, Norway. This annual meeting will be from June 21 to 23. As president-elect of ISBNPA I am responsible for the program of this year's meeting. I worked closely with an international program committee to select and 'recruit' international scientists of great stature to give keynotes or organise a symposium on emerging issues in behavioral nutrition and physical activity. Furthermore, a record-high number of colleagues submitted abstracts for oral and poster presentations during the meeting. The willingness and enthusiasm of these colleagues to contribute to ISBNPA Olso's program resulted in another record: about 450 participants have already registered for the conference, which is more than any other ISBNPA annual meeting. See www.isbnpa.org for the latest version of the preliminary program and for registration forms.
