2023 Annual Report
ANSES presents its annual reports for 2023.
The general report gives an overview of our recent actions taken to protect the health of humans, animals, plants and the environment.
It comes with thematic reports on our activities in the areas of plant protection products, biocidal products and biotechnologies.
"Vectors and diseases becoming acclimatised to our latitudes, resistance to antibiotics and biocides, water pollution and scarcity, adverse effects of consumer goods, the new generation of biotechnologies, emerging risks in the workplace, nutritional imbalances: in recent months, ANSES has produced numerous scientific benchmarks to fuel reflection and action on symbolic subjects. This annual report, accompanied by three thematic reports, bears witness to the efforts made by a highly skilled group of people who care about the quality and ethics of their scientific output."
