ADME Joint Workshop "Potential for
further integration of toxicokinetic modeling into the prediction
of in vivo dose-response curves without animal experiments"
Third International Conference on Alternatives
for Developmental Neurotoxicity Testing (DNT3)
10-13 May 2011 - Varese (Italy), Ville Ponti Congress Centre
Developmental Neurotoxicity is an issue of growing concern in
the context of chemical exposure. The developing human nervous
system is susceptible to toxicants, and exposure during development
may cause lasting neurological deficits. This event, organised
by the JRC, IHCP (Institute for Health and Consumer Protection),
will bring together diverse stakeholders from around the globe.
The following topics will be discussed:
DNT and neurological deficits
DNT and regulatory legislation
Biomarkers and DNT
Gene/Environment interactions
Molecular pathways and DNT
Alternative methods for DNT Testing
Automation and potential of DNT test methods
Registration will open in November 2010.
Call for abstracts - Submission Deadline: January 31, 2011
Reduction and Refinement -
Combining Excellence in Science and Animal Welfare - Sharing of
Good Practice
