The scientific committee has met to organize the concurrent sessions. So far, the programme is shaping up to be a spectacular blend of topics, with a strong emphasis on indigenous community health. Mental health and food security also have a strong presence, although the full breadth of circumpolar topics are included. Several areas remain to be organized before the programme and eventually abstract book are hammered into presentable shape. Stay tuned!

The abstract submission deadline has been extended past January 31st. Please get those abstracts in asap. The original CORG submission system has been replaced with our own online form, so please submit through the ICCH2009 website.
