Code of Conduct

The Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) is committed to ethical professional conduct. To ensure "Environmental Quality through Science ," SETAC meetings serve as open forums for environmental professionals to present the findings of their scientific research. The opinions and ideas expressed are those of the individual, not of the Society.

By encouraging open discussion and exchange of ideas, SETAC meetings help bring the scientific weight-of-evidence to bear in answering environmental toxicology and chemistry questions. Only through support by data and peer-reviewed publications do scientific findings stand the test of time. Ultimately, these findings are accepted or rejected by an individual's peers, not by an organization like SETAC.

Presenters at all SETAC meetings worldwide are expected to be civil and to be professional in their words and actions. When you submit an abstract to SETAC, you agree to meet these expectations.

IF YOU CANNOT ATTEND THE MEETING OR MUST WITHDRAW YOUR PRESENTATION
YOU MUST CONTACT THE SETAC OFFICE.
You may not be allowed to present at the next meeting if you cancel without reason or are a no show.
