Abstract:
The laboratory for Environmental Toxicology and Aquatic Ecology (GhEnToxLab) aims to advance the understanding of environmental and ecotoxicological problems and processes across all levels of biological organisation (from genomes and cells to populations and ecosystems). Through training and education of environmental scientists at both Master, PhD and postdoc level along this general research line and through open communication of research results to industry and policy-makers, the group ultimately aims to improve the ecological relevance of environmental risk assessment of chemicals and other natural and anthropogenic stressors and to support science-based environmental quality management and policy. The marine research within this group is supported by Prof. Colin Janssen.
