RECETOX organized a new POPs inventory training - part II, to promote sustainable management of hazardous chemicals.
The training focused on enhancing the Implementation of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants in Central and Eastern Europe. We welcomed representatives from Albania, Armenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Montenegro and North Macedonia.
The project's components spanned crucial areas: political support, stakeholder engagement, tool and methodology development, knowledge sharing, and training initiatives.
The workshop also included a presentation of Czech traditions. Participants were visited by St. Nicholas, the devil, and an angel who gave them traditional treats: fruit, potatoes, and gingerbread.
In their latest study, scientists from RECETOX (MUNI), the University at Buffalo in the U.S., the National Institute of Public Health in Prague, and University College London in the U.K. found that education plays a role in protecting lung health during the aging process.
From November 5–7, 2024, we participated in the annual meeting of the European consortium ACTRIS. This event serves as a key platform for regular partner meetings, fostering collaboration, sharing the latest updates and experiences, and discussing critical topics related to the development and operation of the ACTRIS research infrastructure.
