Training course "Molecular and biochemical markers in wetlands eco-toxicology"
Training course "Molecular and biochemical markers in wetlands eco-toxicology" will take place from 14th to 19th June 2010 at the Central Laboratory of General Ecology, 2 Gagarin Street, Sofia.
The training course is organised by the Central Laboratory of General Ecology of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (CLGE-BAS) with the financial support of the project WETLANET.
The course aims to promote recent classical, molecular and biochemical methods applied in eco-toxicological studies in wetlands, to enhance exchange visits of scientists and PhD students, that can result in the improving of methodological skills of young scientists, transfer of knowledge between CLGE and other scientific units. Additionally, new scientific contacts will contribute to enlarge research collaborations under joint research projects.
The main topics of the training course are as follows:
- basic classical methods applied in eco-toxicology
- molecular and biochemical markers used for gene-toxic screening, monitoring and biodiversity assessmen
The training course is targeted to the scientific research community, to the national and local authorities and to stakeholders, interested in molecular and biochemical markers used in eco-toxicological studies.
