Our mission:
To promote and enhance professionalism, communication, and education in environmental toxicology and chemistry among academia, government, business and industry.

The Laurentian Chapter is the Ontario regional chapter of the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC©). The Chapter was founded in 1991 and is comprised of students, academics, and people from private business, government and industry, all with a keen interest in environmentally relevant issues. Anyone is free to join and take part in our activities.

Sample Member Profile

*Project Profile. Tailored for scientists who have an exciting project near completion (or in the works), and are looking for the opportunity to share results, successes and lessons learned. Risk assessments, multi-stakeholder projects, government programs have just found a great landing pad. Especially great if you have a project focussed in Ontario.

*Research or Laboratory Profile. Tailored for research labs that may have more than one research area, perhaps in various stages of development. Announce exciting results, tell all about research agendas, boast milestones for you and your students, get the word out if you are looking for collaborators/students. For university research labs, government testing/research labs, or private labs, a venue to let Laurentian members know all facets of your diverse research program.
