The Society of Toxicology (SOT) is proud to co-host the next triennial IUTOX International Congress of Toxicology (ICT) to be held July 15–18, 2019, at the Hawaii Convention Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, USA. The theme of this meeting, to ensure relevance and interest to the worldwide community of toxicologists and environmental health scientists, is “Toxicology Solutions for Global Public, Environmental, and Personal Health.”
The submission site for the Symposia and Continuing Education (CE) Courses is now open!
All proposals must be submitted online by December 31, 2017. Further details on symposia and CE proposals, including review criteria and speaker funding guidance, can be found online. Proposals accepted for ICTXV will be announced at the SOT Annual Meeting in San Antonio, Texas, in March 2018.
The Scientific Program Committee and the CE Committee are looking forward to working with IUTOX and other societies to create an inclusive and diverse program that highlights excellence in the science and practice of toxicology around the globe. We will ensure the balance of interests of different countries and world regions. It is imperative that the attendees feel that scientific sessions and CE courses are informative, inspiring, and present strategies that can be implemented to improve human and environmental health in countries with both robust and developing research and regulatory enterprises.
ICTXV will serve as a global forum for the exchange of ideas that can create impacts at all time scales, create lasting partnerships, and lead to measurable elevation of the competency of the toxicologists globally. We are looking forward to developing an exciting program from the proposals submitted for consideration for the ICTXV Meeting.
If you have any questions concerning session proposals or the submission system, please contact Rachel Frohberg.
