Ecotoxicology explained - interview by TOXstreams
Toxicology is a complicated area where you have to figure out if a chemical is safe for the entire human population? Well, some researchers in this field go even beyond, and instead of studying the safety of substances on “just” people, they focus on any living being on the whole planet. In this TOXstreams interview ecotoxicologists Dr Adam Lillicrap from the Norwegian Institute for Water Research and Dr Kristin Schirmer from the Eawag Science and Technology and co-founder of aQuaTox Solutions GmbH Solutions will explain what and how they do this.

The Netherlands has strong academic knowledge in areas like Lab-on-Chip, Organ-on-Chip, artificial organs, and cell production technology. However, turning this knowledge into actual products is challenging due to the need for collaboration between different technological and biological specialists. The NXTGEN Hightech program (https://nxtgenhightech.nl/en/biomed/) addresses this by creating a collaborative environment where companies from various fields work together. This approach aims to transform academic insights into innovative products, benefiting both the industry and society.
