Overview

Celebrate 25 Years of ECOTOX with Us!

Join us as we celebrate a major milestone — the 25th edition of the ECOTOX Conference on Aquatic and Terrestrial Ecotoxicology and Risk Management!

For a quarter of a century, the ECOTOX Conference has brought together experts from industry, regulatory bodies, and academia to explore the latest scientific advances, regulatory updates, and risk assessment methods for Plant Protection Products (PPPs). With PPPs under tight regulation across the EU and beyond, ECOTOX provides a trusted platform to stay informed, exchange ideas, and navigate evolving regulatory landscapes.

The Conference will be taking place in Dusseldorf/Germany on 27 and 28 November 2025 and you can follow all the exciting contributions via our live stream!
