ABOUT NAC/SETAC

NAC/SETAC is a regional chapter of SETAC (Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry), encompassing the entire North Atlantic region - New Jersey to Newfoundland. Our membership is diverse, comprising people from industry, academia and government. To reflect this geographic and interest diversity, our annual meeting site rotates each year with the plenary session addressing issues pertinent to the locale.

NAC/SETAC is a very active chapter, sponsoring short courses, hosting networking events, and a range of other activities. Annual meeting locations are scheduled in both centralized and less centralized locations in order to best service and expand Chapter membership.
