News & Events

This seminar will feature two presentations: 

• Innovative Approaches to 3R in Education & Training: The Role of Video and Virtual Reality- Dr. Dr. Lisa Ernst
• Replacement methods when investigating the gastro-intestinal tract - Prof. Jörg Aschenbach

• Virtual conference topic sessions of several talks and a group discussion
• The virtual poster session will be accompanied by scheduled discussions per sub-session (poster shared folder, web meeting, and Slack).
• The deadline for speaker abstract submissions and poster submissions is 30 June 2025. 

This conference wishes to bring together again all the stakeholders in the field with the scope to discuss future projects and policy changes that need to be implemented to successfully phase out the reliance on animal testing within the vaccines testing control strategy, including the importance of vaccines’ supply chain sustainability and continuity and the benefits of this in supporting the role of vaccines in One Health.

During this webinar, the speakers will provide an overview of the NAMs.Network platform and its functionalities, including knowledgebase and database access, network features, and tools and resources for researchers and regulators.

This workshop will discuss Green Toxicology for a Sustainable Future. By using computational tools and in vitro testing, Green Toxicology can simultaneously reduce animal testing, modernize toxicology, and give chemists tools to quickly assess the toxicity of chemicals and design safer chemicals.

The event will be themed ‘Unmasking Microplastics: Impacts, Challenges and Implications for (Eco)Toxicology’.

The Annual Meeting includes a dedicated Oral Presentation and Poster Session that will specifically focus on the research of early career scientists. Topics should not necessarily be linked to the theme of the meeting, all submissions from the broader field of toxicology and ecotoxicology are welcome. Deadline for abstract submission: 30/10/2025

This seminar will feature two presentations: 

• Novel human in vitro models for neuromuscular disease research and therapeutic development - Dr. Ines Lahmann
• Human Stem cell-based Models in Neurotoxicology and Neuroinfectiology - Prof. Dr. Bettina- Seeger

This course will provide participants with knowledge on what New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) can tell us about the toxicity of chemicals and how the outcome of NAMS can be integrated into a next generation risk assessment (NGRA), which is an exposure-driven, mechanistic risk assessment approach to assess safe levels of chemical exposures in humans and relies on non-animal test methods.
