Cefic-LRI Workshop on how to move forward with non-animal based assessments
18 November 2015 - 19 November 2015
Belgium
The LRI programme will present the scientific results of seven recently-completed research projects, amongst which is the revamped AMBIT tool, a predictive toxicity model to support read across of substance endpoint data and category formation. The revamped AMBIT tool is a powerful tool that can be used by SMEs and para-chemical industry users for both R&D and regulatory purposes. The tool will be available for the public in early 2016 and will include at least 6 700 additional substances, as part of the non-confidential REACH database.
2015 Innovative Science Award
The LRI programme will announce the winner of the 2015 Innovative Science Award. This prestigious prize is worth € 100 000 and is the biggest award of its kind in Europe to stimulate innovative research and introduce new approaches that advance the environmental assessment of hazardous substances.
Join us to be the first to report on the winner and get the opportunity to interview present and past winners of the LRI award.
