About
The Environment Agency awarded a contract to the University of Exeter for research on the effects of chemical exposure on whole genomes.
The project aimed to develop novel effects indicators for the Outcome Indicator H4, focusing on sub-lethal effects in aquatic organisms caused by chemical mixtures.
The research addressed the need for robust, regulator-friendly measures to predict ecological impacts, given the limitations of current ecotoxicological data.
The contract value was £419,446.49.
