Register for the MOMENTUM Scientific Conference and Stakeholder Meeting!
The Dutch MOMENTUM Microplastics and Human Health project brought together over 25 partners from academia, medicine, industry, policy and non-governmental organisations over the last 4 years. The goal of our project was to unravel the human health effects of microplastics and nanoplastics and to propose solutions to minimize their potential health impact.
Join us in Utrecht for the final meeting of this exciting project!

Scientific Conference
At our Scientific Conference on 30 June, we will present the latest research findings on the effects of micro- and nanoplastics on human health from several MOMENTUM partners. A number of renowned international experts will also present their insightful perspectives on microplastics and human health. The programme will cover the following topics:
