The 25th SETAC Europe Annual Meeting is taking place in Barcelona, Spain. This year the focus is on environmental protection and the challenges posed for science, industry and regulators. LRI will be present and will report on the recent scientific developments in bioaccumulation research and assessment, as they were discussed at the joint LRI-ECHA workshop in September in Helsinki. LRI will host the booth number 8 at the exhibition area.
The innovative use of chemicals and nanomaterials in new technologies, industry and agriculture challenges many aspects of the ecosystem functioning of the global environment. However, these new technologies and materials also offer opportunities to remediate or minimise these anthropogenic insults. Finding innovative solutions to environmental problems is ever more important in the current economic scenario. For SETAC, this is a challenge we relish. This international conference brings together experts from government, industry, consultancy and academia to meet this challenge. The conference will focus on the most recent advances in environmental sciences and will provide platforms for implementing this knowledge, for improving the protection of our environment and to shape policies from current viewpoints to future needs.
