Like the previous 2 symposia on piscine toxicology in the Fish Biology Congress series, this one was held because there is an immediate and dire need to understand the various direct and indirect impacts of both natural and anthropogenic contaminants on fish and fisheries. The talks in this series range from the molecular level, through biochemistry and physiology, to effects on populations. These papers highlight the multidisciplinary nature of aquatic toxicology, and the diversity of approaches used to understand the mechanisms of toxicity and the relevance of those toxicities to individuals, populations and ecologies. In this series, papers discuss toxic mechanisms, comparative approaches to toxicology, various toxicants including organics and metals, effects on different biochemical, physiological and organ systems, as well as endeavors with applicability to population-level impacts. The cumulative knowledge communicated in this symposium will enhance our understanding of piscine toxicology, an area often underrepresented in the general world of basic and applied fish biology.

The sponsors included: - Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) - US Department of Agriculture - US Geological Service - University of British Columbia Fisheries Centre - National Research Council Institute for Marine Biosciences - Vancouver Aquarium Marine Science Centre The main organizers of the Congress, on behalf of the Physiology Section of the American Fisheries Society, were Don MacKinlay of DFO (overall chair, local arrangements, program and proceedings) and Rosemary Pura of UBC Conferences and Accommodation (facility arrangements, registration and housing). Thanks to Karin Howard for assistance with Proceedings editing and word-processing; to Anne Martin for assistance with the web pages; and to Cammi MacKinlay for assistance with social events. I would like to extend a sincere ‘thank you’ to the many organizers and contributors who took the time to prepare a written submission for these proceedings. Your efforts are very much appreciated.
