The SETAC Europe 35th Annual Meeting will be held from 11–15 May 2025 at the Austria Center Vienna in Austria. Bringing together experts from academia, industry, and government, the event will focus on advancing environmental toxicology, chemistry, and sustainable development.
Our project member Stichting Wageningen Research will be present at this event, centred on the Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) approach. The conference will explore chemical safety, ecological risk assessment, and pollution mitigation. Highlights include scientific presentations, plenary talks, training courses, and networking opportunities.
For more details visit the official website. We look forward to seeing you in Vienna! 👋
