THE RADON REPORTER | 3 ASSOCIATION NEWS Embracing Our New Identity and Looking Ahead Fellow IEA Members, As we enter the final stretch of my term as President, I am filled with immense pride and excitement to continue to serve the Indoor Environments Association (IEA). We have transformed our brand from the American Association of Radon Scientists and Technologists (AARST) to IEA, securing our position in an evolving indoor environments landscape. Together, we’ve accomplished many of our strategic initiatives, but we have much more to achieve. New IEA. New Era. The new IEA identity signifies our commitment to advancing research, education, and policy in the field of the built environment. It embodies our dedication to addressing the diverse challenges faced by professionals in our industry. As we embrace this new chapter, I am confident that our expanded focus will lead to greater collaboration, innovation, and impact. Our election is underway. These elections are crucial in shaping the future of our association, and I urge all members to participate actively. We have an outstanding slate of candidates, each bringing a wealth of experience and a unique vision for IEA. Your vote is vital in selecting the leaders who will guide us forward and help realize our goals. Please take the time to review the candidates’ profiles and cast your vote. One of the most anticipated events this year is our annual symposium. Scheduled for September 15 -18, 2024, Indoor Environments 2024 will be in Orlando, Florida. The symposium is a cornerstone of our association, providing a platform for experts, researchers, and practitioners to share knowledge, explore cutting-edge technologies, and discuss best practices. This year’s program promises to be exceptional, with a lineup of distinguished speakers, interactive sessions, and networking opportunities that will inspire and inform. I encourage you all to join us for this pivotal event and contribute to the vibrant exchange of ideas that defines our community. I want to take this opportunity to thank each of you for your continued support and dedication to our mission. Your passion and commitment drive our success and make our association a beacon of excellence in indoor environmental health. Together, we will continue to make strides in improving indoor environments and safeguarding public health. As we move forward with our new identity and prepare for the upcoming symposium and elections, I am optimistic and enthusiastic about what lies ahead. I look forward to seeing many of you in Orlando and continuing to advance our mission. Letter from the President Kyle Hoylman
