Publishing House Eurobit Timisoara (2009). ? 184 p.The present volume hosts papers presented during the 9th edition of the ?Metal Elements in Environment, Medicine and Biology (M.E.E.M.B.) symposium, organized under the auspices of the Cluj-Napoca and Timisoara branches of the Romanian Academy. While all previous editions have taken place in Timisoara, this year the event has been organized at the ?Babes-Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. This series of symposia was initiated in 1993 by the ?Working Group for Metal Research in Biological Systems, founded by Timisoara researchers in 1979. Past editions have allowed for inter-disciplinary interaction between researchers from various parts of the world, interested in the importance of metals for various aspects of our life. We thank this year?s participants for their valuable contributions, and look forward for even more fruitful discussions during the future editions of this symposium.
