The scientific program committee has decided to schedule 2 paralell sessions to reflect the high demand for additional scientific, societal and regulatory topics to be discussed at the ESTIV congress.
Themes
Invited Speakers
- Bio-engineering, stem cells and disease models
- Models, biomarkers and assays for endocrine disruption and developmental toxicity
- Models, biomarkers and assays for systemic and immune toxicity
- Organ-on-chip models
- Challenges in EU Cosmetic regulation
- Computational toxicology – in silico modelling, read-across, artificial intelligence and machine learning
- Local toxicity testing (safety and efficacy)
- Toxicokinetics and in vitro – in vivo extrapolation
- Animal product free NAMs
- In vitro methods for safety testing of biopharmaceuticals/biotherapies/vaccines
- NAMs in the Environmental toxicity / Green deal
- Mixtures and biomonitoring
- In vitro COVID-19 research/lung and cardiovascular models
- In vitro methods for safety assessment of medical devices
