FORTHCOMING EVENTS

 

Recent Trends in Toxicology and Preclinical Toxicology

Date: November 04-07, 2009.

Venue:
National Institute of Nutrition
(Indian Council of Medical Research)
Hyderabad 500 604.India

Theme: This Conference is aimed as to bring National & International scientists on common platform to share views and exchange state of art knowledge on recent trends in toxicity and preclinical toxicology, toxicogenomics, food safety and Good Laboratory Practices. It is hoped to make the event a memorable experience both scientifically and personally.

In the recent past with the development of new categories of bio-pharmaceuticals like viz. biotech products, DNA vaccines, plant products, drugs, chemicals, genetically modified foods, stem cell therapy, nano medicine etc., the routine guidelines for preclinical toxicity evaluation are being developed on case to case basis. Since, the importance of genomics has become pertinent in the current situation, the new challenges for toxicologists are emerging. Therefore the present symposium is organized with the following current topics. In addition pre-conference workshop on 4th November, 2009 on pre-clinical toxicology, ethics in animal experimentation and GLP will be held.
