Join us at the CUSP International Conference 2023
The European Research Cluster to Understand the Health Impacts of Micro- and Nanoplastics invites you to take part in person at our International Conference on the Impact of MNPs on Human Health.
When: 14th September 2023 (09.00-17.00)
Where: Jaarbeurs Centre, Utrecht, Netherlands.
Background and purpose:
The CUSP International Conference 2023 will provide an opportunity for scientists, industry, policymakers and regulators, as well as civil society, to present and discuss results achieved over two years' intensive research within the five cluster projects, and enable you to find out about further achievements on an international scale.
The conference is an important milestone to determine where we are and what challenges we still face in assessing the potential impact on human health of MNPs and associated additives and chemicals.
Content and format:
Participants will hear from key experts on the state-of-the-art in human exposure, fate, health hazards, methodologies, risk assessment approaches, standardisation, and human biomonitoring, among other topics. You will also gain valuable insight into the latest results from the CUSP projects and other initiatives, including COST Action CA20101 PRIORITY; BRIGID (Plastics Europe); MINAGRIS; and the MOMENTUM network. A panel discussion will allow attendees to examine implications for policy, industry and regulation; and a subsequent poster session will facilitate further knowledge exchanges with plenty of opportunity for networking.
Who should attend?
The event will be of particular interest to EU services, representatives from EU institutions, regulators, industry, and members of other EU, national and international projects and networks.
