摘要:The scientific meeting of the IUCH was held in Nuuk in September 2003. The outcome of this meeting was positive, especially with respect to the health of Arctic Indigenous people. As part of the meeting program, the new IUCH council was elected, which, in turn, nominated Neil Murphy from Alaska as the new president of the IUCH. We welcome both Neil Murphy and the new IUCH council.(Int J Circumpolar Health 2003; 62(4):320-321)
