On Wednesday 23 September the TerraChem team will present at an online seminar organised by the European European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). The ECHA’s seminars cover a wide range of topics related to chemical safety, regulatory science, and innovative research in the field of chemicals management.
Several team members of TerraChem will speak about the TerraChem systems approach that addresses chemical impacts on terrestrial biodiversity. The presentations cover insights on this new systems approach, case studies, tools and methods for risk assessment and early warning systems.
You can watch the seminar here on the ECHA’s YouTube account from 10:30 to 12:00 CEST. Visit the ECHA’s website for more information.
