Second International Conference on Environmental Toxicology
This International Conference will address the need for the exchange of scientific information among experts on issues related to environmental toxicology, toxicity assessment and hazardous waste management. With thousands of new chemicals entering the market every year, it has become necessary to assess their effects on the ecosystem as well as to minimize their impact on the environment.
Following the success of the first international conference on Environmental Toxicology, held in Mykonos in 2006, it has been decided to reconvene the meeting in Granada in 2008.
