>Ecohealth Student Section Meeting. The Ecohealth Student Section had a wonderfully successful meeting at the International EcoHealth Forum 2008 in Mérida, Mexico in December 2008.  Highlights of the Student Section meeting include the introduction of new student section coordinators, an overview of the Memorandum of Understanding, and a collaborative brainstorming session.  The meeting was followed by a lively party where Ecohealth students were able to meet, network and socialize.

>Ecohealth Students at COHAB 2. Kosta Tzoulas, who represented the Student Section at COHAB 2: Conference on Health & Biodiversity, 25-28 February 2008, in Galway, Ireland, wrote up an overall summary report and a separate report on the side event entitled "Biodiversity, Development and Health in Higher Education: Current Provision and Future Potential".  The draft COHAB overall report and the draft side event report are now available.

>The EcoHealth journal now available on Pubmed/Medline.  To quote Bruce Wilcox, the chief editor, "this is a huge development".  Presence on Pubmed and Medline will greatly expand journal access and affirms the high quality of human health related research already being published in the journal.
