Tending the environmental science ecosystem - Sabine Apitz, SETAC Europe President

  • サマリー

  • Ahead of the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) annual European conference in Vienna (11-15th May), I caught up with Sabine Apitz, SETAC Europe President and Editor-in-Chief of the academic journal Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management (IEAM).

    Sabine and I had a fascinating discussion about environmental science, the scientific community, and the emergence and application of scientific knowledge. We discussed some of the pressing issues and challenges facing the SETAC community, and society at large. Sabine also shared some of what we could look forward to at the upcoming Vienna conference and the 9th SETAC World Congress (and first to be held in Africa) later this year.

    Our conversation covers:

    • Sabine’s background and career journey
    • The emergence and application of scientific knowledge
    • Using tools and models to inform environmental policy, and appreciating their limitations
    • Sabine’s experience working as an independent consultant
    • The role of scientists from different backgrounds in science and policy discussions
    • Public representation at SETAC and in broader environmental discourse
    • Reflections on the current political environment for science and society at large
    • Dealing with complexity in trying to understand ecosystems
    • Sabine’s own experience with podcasting
    • An unexpected finding from an investigation into hygiene products
    • Upcoming SETAC events – Vienna and Johannesburg


    This is a great one for anyone interested in learning more about SETAC, the organisation that brings together scientists from across disciplines to study the issue of chemicals in the environment and to inform science-based environmental decisions.
