1st National Seminar on Environment, Toxicity and Health (SNETH'2026)

November 24-25, 2026
Registration Fees: The seminar is free of charge.
PREAMBLE

In a context where anthropogenic pressures on ecosystems are reaching critical thresholds, the understanding of interactions between environmental pollutants and human health has become a major scientific priority. The First National Seminar on Environment, Toxicity, and Health aims to provide an interdisciplinary platform for scientific exchange dedicated to the assessment of emerging environmental and health risks. This ecological urgency calls for an integrated approach combining field diagnostics, experimental investigations, and computational modelling, in order to support the development of effective ecosystem restoration strategies.This scientific event brings together researchers and experts to review the current state of knowledge and to propose innovative and sustainable solutions to contemporary environmental and public health challenges.

OBJECTIVES
  • Promote collaboration among stakeholders in toxicology and environmental science research.
  • Assess the impact of environmental degradation on public health.
  • Encourage the use of digital tools and computational modelling in chemical risk assessment.
  • Elucidate the fundamental biological mechanisms of toxicity at the cellular level.
  • Explore strategies for the restoration of degraded environments through sustainable approaches.
