There is a long established requirement of air monitoring within the preventive framework of identifying and controlling health hazards at the work place and in the environment. For the characterisation of exposure to chemical and biological agents, sensitive, selective and user-friendly methods and relevant sampling strategies are needed. In recent years there have been a variety of new developments and it is essential to promote the knowledge of these newly developed methods and strategies for workplace, indoor and ambient air monitoring. Six previous meetings have been held: at Geilo, Norway in 1993, 1999 and 2008; at Sälen, Sweden in 1996; at Hafjell-Lillehammer, Norway 2002 and at Loen, Norway 2005. The programme for AIRMON 2011 aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in this important field. Therefore some of the world’s leading authorities in relevant fields will be present, allowing the symposium to be an excellent forum for the exchange of ideas as well as an opportunity for private informal discussions, for all those who are involved in method development, air sampling, exposure assessment, regulatory issues or other areas related to air monitoring and biological monitoring. This year one day of the conference has been organised in collaboration with Nordic Institute for Advanced Training in Occupational Health (NIVA) and will focus on the emerging issue of understanding potential health effect differences between engineered and incidentally formed nanoparticles. All contributions (including posters) will be considered for publication in a special issue of Journal of Environmental Monitoring after the symposium. We know that the natural beauty of the area will captivate you, but we also hope that the conference excursions and outdoor farewell dinner may complement our scientific endeavours. On behalf of the organisers it is our pleasure to invite you to Loen. We promise you an exciting and memorable conference and stay!
