On April 17, the Commission en santé et sécurité du travail du Québec (CSST), our strategic partner, hosted the first meeting for year 5 of the Center for Asthma in the Workplace. We would like to thank our hosts, with special thanks going to Jules Turcot. The agenda included the results of our scholarship and project competitions for 2008. Researchers who received start-up grants were invited to present their projects. The question period produced some dynamic exchanges with members, who clearly found the projects extremely interesting.
