Environmental occurrence, hazard and risk of PFAS

Following the successful edition in September 2022, the NWO/TTW project 'Exposure, hazard and risk of PFAS in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems' in collaboration with MilieuChemTox section of the KNCV, will organize a second PFAS symposium in 2023.

Date: 6 October 2023

Location: Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU), De Boelelaan 1108, Amsterdam
O2 building, Auditorium

Costs (excl VAT): € 45,- per person for members of MCT, € 55,- for non-members
