This webinar will present an in silico platform to model the host response to chronic infection by Leishmania parasites, therefore enhancing new target development in infectious diseases. This platform was developed to address the 2013 VIDR CRACK IT Challenge.

The webinar is part of the CRACK IT 10-year anniversary celebrations.

This training will deepen participants' knowledge on the applications and use of Multi-Organ-Chip-based models in the context of Safety and efficacy evaluation. The topics covered include:  1. Handling of the Multi-Organ-Chip (MOC) technology of TissUse, 2. Visible observation of chips production, 3. Implementation of cells & organ models into the MOC, 4. Cultivation of MOC, ...

This webinar will bring together two legal experts to discuss the public health policy implications and legal precedents involved in the use of new approach methodologies (NAMs) for regulatory decision-making and product liability.

Several case studies will be discussed including the use of NAMs under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA Endocrine Disruptor Screening Program, Chlorine Chemistry Council v. EPA case (206 F.3d 1286 (D.C. Cir. 2000)), ...

During this event, the future development of Organ-on-Chip (OoC) or Micro Physiological Systems (MPS) technology will be discussed. Particularly, the areas of application and stakeholder needs to facilitate their implementation in the regulatory framework, thereby advancing further the replacement of animal use in testing.  

The conference will highlight the latest information on the regulatory use of QSAR and Read-Across. A particular focus will be put on (i) developing practical examples and recent experiences of applying QSARs to assess genotoxicity; and (ii) exploring the opportunities and challenges of using read-accross in general toxicity assessment.

This course consists of lectures and hands-on-training in the setup of PBPK models based on non-animal input parameters, so that participants can learn how to use these models to extrapolate in vitro bioassay data to human dose-response or potency information. The basic principles, as well as specific software, will be addressed.

This webinar will be given by Andreas Georg Weber, a PhD student working on in vitro methods regarding the thyroid gland at BASF SE.
