Another year comes to a quick close, which is a great opportunity to reflect on exciting moments in 2019.

Notable moments in 2019 include many, but here are three of our highlights:

• Our research training group SYSTEMLINK fully started in October
• We hosted the SETAC GLB meeting
• Many of our researchers and students could contribute to the successes of the SETAC meetings in Helsinki and Toronto

Most notably: We want to dedicate this year’s Christmas post to the person responsible of bringing the EcotoxBlog to live: Jochen Zubrod. He will – with a heavy heart – graduate from the Blog team and engage in new exciting challenges. Thus, Jochen has transferred responsibilities of the EcotoxBlog to Verena Sesin (on the team since 2015) and Jakob Wolfram (welcome!).

We want to thank everyone for their contributions and support of the EcotoxBlog and wish you – and all our readers – a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Take care and see you in 2020!
