We welcome scientists, traffic police and lawyers, official and organization delegates to give presentations by sending abstracts. Young Scientist Program
ICADTS has a Young Scientists Program designed to promote involvement and career development in alcohol, drugs and traffic safety research. The activities are open to researchers and scientists under 40 years old. A special session for young scientists will be organized during the Oslo meeting. Contact Joris Verster J.C.Verster@uu.nl or Robyn Robertson robynr@trafficinjuryresearch.com for more details. Developing Countries Programs ICADTS strongly encourages involvement by scientists and researchers from developing countries, and has programs to support and mentor the development of research in those nations. We also provide travel scholarships for a limited number of delegates. We invite scientists from all countries to join us in Oslo. |
