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. |
