The long-anticipated FutureTox V Contemporary Concepts in Toxicology two-day meeting will take place in person May 10–11, 2022, at the Friday Conference Center on the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill campus.

FutureTox V will feature presentations and discussions of interest to regulatory toxicologists; those studying, developing, or using new approaches to improve, reduce, or replace animal testing; and individuals wondering how computational analysis and artificial intelligence can inform toxicology.

Register now or submit an abstract (deadline April 8) to attend this cutting-edge conference, which will feature speakers from academia, industry, and regulatory agencies. Specifically, presenters will discuss what model systems are needed; what models are available for organ injury prevention and assessment—evaluating the effects of drugs and chemicals on the liver, gut, heart, blood-brain barrier, and lung; and the advantages and disadvantages of novel technologies and models.

We hope you will join us for this exciting meeting. Learn more about the full agenda and register on the conference website.

The FutureTox series focuses on building the roadmap for 21st-century toxicology and risk assessment practices, utilizing in vitro data and in silico models for predictive toxicology, and taking the high-throughput risk assessment paradigm forward to address challenges in implementing the emerging big-data toolbox for risk assessment and regulatory decision-making.
