Detalle de: Effects of Environmental Contaminants

Title Effects of Environmental Contaminants
Description

Our main objective is to study the mechanisms underlying the toxicity of emerging pollutants (e.g. nanomaterials, endocrine disruptors, biocides or mycotoxins) and their bioaccumulation in aquatic organisms, particularly in fish, using in vitro and in vivo approaches. We also develop environmental risk assessment methodologies.
