Exponent : Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) Annual Meeting

The theme of the 2017 meeting is, 'Toward a Superior Future: Advancing Science for a Sustainable Environment.' The conference will allow attendees to share and exchange information and ideas to help develop and find solutions to the world's most challenging environmental problems. Over 2,400 scientists from over 40 countries will be in attendance.

SETAC is a non-profit, worldwide professional society whose mission is to support the development of principles and practices for protection, enhancement and management of sustainable environmental quality and ecosystem integrity.
