Submitted by B. Bhaskar Gollapudi and Stephen Dertinger, Chairpersons of the upcoming 2014 Continuing Education course, “Current Trends in Genetic Toxicology Testing.”
The scientific discipline of genetic toxicology is in the midst of a sea change. Regulatory requirements across the globe are being harmonized, with emphasis on “3 Rs” and germ cell effects. Rapid advances in molecular biology are facilitating the integration of biomarkers to investigate genomic damage as the field advances into the 21st century. Genetic toxicology is at the cross-roads of moving away from a qualitative science to the quantitative assessment of dose-responses, including the identification of point-of-departure (PoD) metrics to extrapolate effects to realistic human exposure levels.
“Current Trends in Genetic Toxicology Testing” has been designed to help you navigate these changes. Do not delay, register for this AM03 Continuing Education (CE) course today! Access a full listing of the CE courses at the 2014 SOT Annual Meeting website.
