Workpackage 1 : Promoting the network for an integrated and transversal research in ecotoxicology

Leaders : Management Board

Participants : Management Board and Executive Commitee

Objectives :

RECOTOX aims at becoming an incubator for research projects, by promoting the appropriation of ecotoxicological issues with a sequential approach between its sites. The appropriation will be promoted :

  • In all sites by :
    • Sharing of knowledge (and concepts), compiling acquired data, developing common or harmonized methods and protocols by processes,
    • The homogenization of reference documents and procurement,
    • The integration of existing data in an information system allowing their access by the national and international scientific community,
    • The identification of significant aspects to reinforce on each site for a better answer to scientific questions addressed and allow evolution of data acquiring practices,
  • In sites where the actions are relevant and suitable :
    • By strengthening the existing measurements on practices and uses, transfers, exposure, or impacts in the different compartments, at the relevant spatial and temporal scales,
    • By developing an integrated approach and/or by transposing methods and models developed on other sites of the network.

 

  • Added value :
    • Incubation of research projects and creative ideas,
    • Better collective use of sites,
    • Progressive appropriation of ecotoxicological issues within the sites,
    • Ability to consider, with partnership, experimentations in controlled conditions to in natura sites,
  • Deliverables :
    • Scientific meetings to prepare relevant call for projects,
    • Scientific position papers,
    • Research projects.
