IUTOX and SBTox To Be Held in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil:
Abstract Deadline June 30, 2015
IUTOX (International Union of Toxicology) and the Brazilian Society of Toxicology (SBTox) are pleased to announce the upcoming Congress of Toxicology in Developing Countries (9th CTDC) and XIX Brazilian Congress of Toxicology (XIX CBTox) that will be held November 7–10, 2015, at the Convention Center in the city of Natal, in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. This meeting provides a unique forum to update your knowledge of toxicological sciences in relation to problems experienced by developing countries and to share your work with national and international toxicologists. The Congress also provides the opportunity to establish and expand networks with partners at the national and international level and to present and discuss your research results with the scientific toxicology community. For additional information, to register, and to submit an abstract, please visit the Congress website. IUTOX is offering travel awards to encourage and support participation of researchers, students, and scientists from developing countries. An application and more information about these awards may be found at the IUTOX website,
Cellular & Molecular Mechanisms of Toxicity GRC:
Meeting Applications Due July 12, 2015
The Cellular & Molecular Mechanisms of Toxicity Gordon Research Conference — Mechanistic Toxicology: The Path Forward will be held August 9–14, 2015, at the Proctor Academy, Andover, New Hampshire. This conference is a premier forum for showcasing the latest, most innovative advances in mechanistic toxicological research. For the 2015 conference, the organizers have assembled a group of world-leading experts working in areas of investigation that are highly relevant to environmental, industrial, and pharmaceutical toxicology, with the goal of incorporating research on the mechanistic basis of disease into risk decision-making. Emerging technologies in mechanistic toxicology and computational, 3D, and in vivo modeling as well systems biology approaches to assessing risk to human health will be highlighted as well as the microbiome, the inflammasome, epigenetics, carcinogenesis, and stem cells in toxicological research. For the second time, a Gordon Research Seminar on Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Toxicity will precede the conference. This provides an expanded opportunity for trainees and young scientists to be exposed to cutting-edge science and to network with their future colleagues in the field.
