UPA Europe2008: Usability and Design, December 4th, 5th and 6th, 2008, Turin, Italy
"Usability and design are professional approaches that are often seen separately. Usability is perceived to be focused on establishing standards, rather than a culture of practices to make products and services simpler, easier, and more pleasant to us. Design on the other hand is often connected to creativity and innovation. This conceptual separation - which this conference sets out to overcome - is reflected in how the consultancy market is composed, how companies organise their staff, and the different professional languages in use."

17th World Congress on Ergonomics, IEA2009, August 9-14, 2009, Beijing, China
"The theme of the congress is 'partnerships in ergonomics: changes, challenges and opportunities'. This theme reflects the current debates in the ergonomics domain. As a multidisciplinary science, ergonomics has changed and grown over the last 50 years to now cover 26 different technical areas operationalize through technical committees (TC). Each TC enables researchers and practitioners to share together in a wide diversity of areas from agricultural challenges in developing countries to aerospace ergonomics. The relative size of the ergonomics science is small compared with the primary sciences such as engineering and medicine. The future growth of our domain will depend on mutual recognition and partnerships with external groups such as related professional associations and international bodies who also research and practice in industry."
