Your questions about the Burrlioz replacement answered by the experts

While not without its problems and limitations, Burrlioz has served the Australian-New Zealand Ecotox community incredibly well over the past ~ 25 years. It’s now time to retire Burrlioz and roll-out new-generation software that embeds the latest developments in SSD modelling. The core development team will give you an update on:

  • Austalian-Canadian SSD collaboration over the past 4 years
  • What’s new, what’s going to change
  • new developments in CR modelling – Bayesnec and the No Significant Effect Concentration (NSEC)
  • model averaged SSDs
  • using mixture distributions to fit SSDs
  • Implications for GVs and DGVs
  • accessing the new software
  • computational issues
  • implementation strategy and managing the transition

Suggested background reading – go to our online forum page here where you can read about the transition and participate in the discussion.
