By presenting a number of illustrative exam- ples using standard test species –Danio rerio fish–as a model, he showed how system biology or “omics” could be used in integrative testing strategies. He underlined that one of the main challenges would be to link mole- cular and cellular interactions and effects to individuals, populations, communities and ecosystems. Answering to the challenge, Dr. Brett Lyons (CEFAS, UK) presented the application of “ omics ” in marine monitoring. He Figure 1 Invited lecturers .

The problem of up-scaling in ERA was tackled by Dr. Mikhail Beketov (UFZ, Leipzig). By giving a number of examples, he showed how ecolo- gical knowledge and methods, spanning from organism to ecosystem and landscape levels of complexity, pro- vided essential scientific background for risk assessment, in the first place, regarding measuring and predicting effects of toxicants at the community and ecosystem levels. Toxic effects’ alterations caused by system prop- erties at population and community levels were dis- cussed in particular, and the species-at-risk approach based on ecological traits was presented. It has been generally agreed that effect-based identifi- cation of key toxicants as well as analysis, modelling and assessment of bioavailability and bioaccumulation are needed, along with better evaluation of monitoring data on contamination, toxicity, ecological quality and eco- system services on a large scale.
