New webpages on ECHA’s scientific work

Europe

The pages showcase how the European Chemicals Agency works for chemical safety through science.

The new science web section serves as a one stop shop for ECHA’s science related work, improving its visibility and facilitating access to discussions on scientific topics. The new pages enhance the transparency of the scientific work supporting ECHA’s core tasks.

Mike Rasenberg, Director of Hazard Assessment, said:

“Science is at the heart of ECHA’s vision; chemical safety through science, collaboration and knowledge. It is a key driver helping us to reach our goals, and scientific evidence is the basis of all our regulatory decisions, opinions and advice. Our scientific knowledge base is built on close collaboration with researchers, industry and other regulatory bodies.”

The pages describe the work of ECHA’s scientific committees and expert groups and provide details on the scientific partnerships and collaborations, and highlight the Agency’s regulatory research needs.

A new section focuses on the knowledge hub where ECHA shares the latest scientific and technical updates in the field of chemical safety. The section compiles the science seminars, conference presentations and scientific publications.
