The toxicology department of Wageningen University organizes every two year an
international trip to exchange, increase research collaborations and develop
new contacts between institutions and people. This year, the group will visit various
universities, governmental institutions and industries in Canada between May 25
and June 6, 2025. The last step of this trip plans on meeting EcotoQ
researchers in the Québec region. This meeting will take the form of an interactive
symposium on June 6 at INRS, ETE centre, and will include oral presentations
and poster sessions to start open discussion and share knowledge and
experiences.
The toxicology department at WUR is active in various research topics related to EcotoQ’s activities, including environmental toxicology and risk assessment. This department is directed by Ivonne Rietjens, with the professor Nico Van den Brink who directs the “Environmental Toxicology” subgroup.
