COMMITTEE WELCOME

                          Welcome to SETAC Australasia – Melbourne 2021
We are pleased to welcome you to the 2021 SETAC AU Conference with the very fitting theme of “Resilience and
recovery amidst global environmental change”. The ongoing uncertainties with travel restrictions and state-wide
lockdowns due to the COVID-19 pandemic have forced us to switch from an in-person event to a fully virtual one, and
whilst it means we miss out on some of the social aspects of a conference, we hope you will enjoy the online program we
have put together for you.

The conference will focus on the environmental impacts of major environmental threats, and this year will be a joint
meeting with the CSIRO’s What's In Our Water Symposium Series, which has the theme “Ecological impact, risk
assessment and management of Chemicals of Emerging Concern”. The 7th What’s in Our Water Symposium will
run on Monday 30th August, then run as a joint session on Tuesday 31st August, as part of the SETAC conference that
will run from Tuesday 31st August to Thursday 2nd September.

We have created what we hope will be an exciting and thought-provoking scientific program that includes several local
and international Plenary and Keynote speakers, along with over 150 oral and e-poster presentations. We hope this
meeting will bring together scientists and managers from various disciplines, including ecotoxicologists, environmental
toxicologists and environmental chemists to stimulate much discussion and knowledge sharing, and build on the strong
history of tripartite collaboration between industry, government and academia. We hope that you enjoy SETAC AU 2021!

INVITED SPEAKERS

SETAC AUSTRALASIA CONFERENCE

JOCHEN MUELLER: UNIVERSITY OF QUEENSLAND, AUSTRALIA
TONY ROACH MEMORIAL PLENARY

Jochen’s research focuses on monitoring of trace organic pollutants, including
pioneering work on sources, fate, monitoring techniques (including development
of passive sampling techniques) and trends in human exposure to trace
contaminants. More recently his group has been leading research in the field of
wastewater epidemiology.

Jochen joined QAEHS in 1997 and was awarded an ARC Future Fellowship in
2012 to understand changes in chemical exposure through integrative sampling
and systematic archiving. As part of his research program at QAEHS he has led
numerous national and international studies, such as Australia's National Dioxin
Program, the Brominated Flame Retardant Program and a major study to
investigate bush-fire emissions (the results of which are included in the UNEP
Toolkit). He works closely with governments (state, federal and international
including UNEP) on the development of systematic monitoring strategies,
including for protection of the Great Barrier Reef. As part of his Future Fellowship, he has established an extensive sample
archive, the Australian Environmental Specimen Bank (ESB), to allow retrospective analysis of changes in pollutant
exposure in Australia.

Jochen’s work on passive samplers, bioanalytical techniques for emerging chemicals and wastewater epidemiology has
received support from ARC and numerous industry partners.

postdoctoral research in chemistry at the University of California, Berkeley, he
shifted his research interests into environmental toxicology, conducting further
postdoctoral studies at the University of California, Davis.

In 2003 he was awarded a NERC Advanced Fellowship and relocated to the
University of Birmingham, where his research team now focuses on the
development and application of both NMR spectroscopy and mass
spectrometry in environmental metabolomics, specifically as tools for chemical
risk assessment and environmental monitoring. His primary research interests
include the molecular characterisation and understanding of stress responses
in aquatic organisms, in particular to environmental pollution. In addition, his
team develops novel analytical and bioinformatic approaches for metabolomics.
He has authored over 90 publications, including pioneering applications of
metabolomics to environmental health issues in aquatic organisms.

ANNEGAAIKE LEOPOLD: UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA

Annegaaike Leopold Msc, has joined the Institute for Resources, Environment and Sustainability, working as Co-PI with
Dr. Gunilla Oberg, on a research program aimed at building transparency into the regulatory process of risk assessment
and management of organic chemicals, specifically in the face of scientific controversies. This builds seamlessly on her
background as EUROTOX registered applied environmental toxicologist with 30 years of
experience in the field of regulatory ecotoxicology and environmental fate. Over the past
20 years she has focused on endocrine ecotoxicology, evaluating effects of potential
endocrine disruptors in birds and amphibians as well as fish. Working on the hazard and
risk assessment of potentially endocrine disruptive chemicals, has allowed her to work
closely with scientists representing different opinions in the scientific debate on endocrine
disruptors. This has led her to science for policy research program she currently working
on at EGESTA. As President of the European branch of the Society of Environmental
Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC), she is also contributing to shaping the future of
science and risk communication of environmental research in SETAC.

A significant portion of career Annegaaike has worked as an executive manager in the contract laboratory world. This has
allowed her to develop skills as project manager, working in a planned and systematic way, directing and executing business
development, expanding and deepening client relationships, leading and developing multidisciplinary teams. She is also a
keen scientific organiser of workshops and conferences on cutting edge environmental topics. Annegaaike had an
international childhood and she is bilingual (Dutch-English).

GLEN WALKER: DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, WATER AND
ENVIRONMENT, AUSTRALIA

Glen Walker is a scientist working in the public service and he uses science to help
achieve a sustainable future.

Glen’s principal role is the ecological risk assessment of industrial chemicals and
nanotechnology. He lead a team developing and deploying new methods to rapidly

The breakout session aims to investigate the issues associated with the application of the ASLP analytical tool for
predicting PFAS mass flows and using the resultant data to assess risk. Better tools are required to understand the
movement of PFAS within the environment and to enable more accurate modelling and risk assessment.

This session aims to identify a toolbox of suitable alternatives, which can replace or be used in conjunction with ASLP,
by highlighting their measures, methodologies, advantages, and limitations. The information from this workshop will then
be synthesised into a report for consideration by the National Chemicals Working Group and other key stake holders.

The program will run as a breakout session as part of SETAC Australasia 2021 proceedings, where a scoping discussion
session will be used to collect and collate relevant information. These themes will be condensed into individual
questionnaires and supplied to all attendees via email for response (anonymously if so desired) within a 2-week period.
Questionnaire responses will provide detailed information which can be reviewed and included in a final report.
