Turone and Ovadia in the program of WCSJ Cairo 2011

The preliminary program of the VII World Congress of Science Journalists that will take place in 2011 in Cairo, Egypt, from June 27 to 29, was published in the conference website.

SWIM-SWITY board member Daniela Ovadia and president Fabio Turone will produce a session on bioethics and on risk, respectively.

In the next couple of months the program will be enriched and better defined, so anyone willing to propose a talk or a panel is invited to contact directly the Co-Directors of WCSJ2011 Nadia El-Awady (nadia.elawady (at) wcsj2011.org) and Dalia Abdel-Salam (dalia.sallam (at) wcsj2011.org) or Program Committee Chair Deborah Blum (deborah.blum (at) wcsj2011.org).

For any kind of assistance, don’t hesitate to contact Fabio Turone (turone (at) sciencewriters.it).
