We have received positive feedback from several attendees and we are excited about the potential collaborations and projects that may develop from using Oregon DMV records to calculate body mass index. We sincerely apologize to folks who were not able to join us remotely due to our capacity limitations. Please use this link to access the recording: https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/354700234 Obesity in Oregon: Findings from driver?s license records Abstract: Obesity is one of public health?s top priorities. A growing body of evidence links community design and environmental factors with obesity. To support obesity studies and inform prevention efforts, Oregon Environmental Public Health Tracking (EPHT) is publishing weight status data calculated from driver?s license and identification cards issued by Driver and Motor Vehicles Services (DMV). With over 3.5 million records containing address information, this rich data source can provide precise weight estimates for areas as small as census block groups. Please join Oregon EPHT we examine DMV records as a resource for tracking the weight of the population and present maps that will soon be accessible on the EPHT Data Portal.

Keynote speakers include: Dr. Michael Wilson of UC Berkeley and PSU's Jennifer Allen. Elizabeth Grossman, known for her environmental blogging in the Pump Handle among other sources, will be attending this event for purposes of writing a blog and researching for an upcoming book she is writing. We are particularly excited about the opportunity to facilitate discussions on this topic among people with different expertise and subject interests, including environmental sustainability and workplace health and safety. Symposium Objectives To share the economic and health case for reducing toxic materials in the workplace. Current global and Oregon policies addressing and impacting use of toxic materials in the workplace will be briefly summarized.
