GeoPro Talks: Imposex in the City

Online
Michelle Ashley

Description

As practitioners in the contaminated sites field, we know that exposure to various chemicals at concentrations above a certain threshold is bad. Sometimes, however, we do not know why they are bad.  The objective of this presentation is to provide high level information related to the “bad” (i.e. toxicity). It focuses on aquatic ecological exposures and provides interesting information on a handful of contaminants and associated toxicological effects. Further, it promises to not “nerd out” and delve too deep into biochemical details. We want you to be awake after the presentation is complete!
