September 10 - 13, Ljubjana, Slovenia
The world of toxicology is at an important stage of paradigm shifts at various levels. These changes, which arise from still unmet needs to find and validate experimental models that are closer to humans, are characterised by the appearance of new approach methodologies, equipment with higher performance and greater sensitivity, and computer algorithms to deal with big data, allowing us to advance science and unveil the secrets of adverse outcomes like never before in order to move towards the next generation of risk assessment.
Under the theme “Toxicology – multidisciplinary science leading to safer and sustainable life” the Local Organising Committee, chaired by Dr. Lucija Perharič, and the Scientific Programme Committee (SPC), chaired by Dr. Thomas Weiser, have put together an inspiring programme covering all aspects of modern toxicology. We are particularly keen to emphasise the breadth of toxicology and the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration. For the first time ever, the Slovenian Society of Toxicology (https://www.tox.si/), they will have the honour of hosting a EUROTOX Congress.
