Does progress in ‘omics’ help in human health risk assessment?

13 October 2017 09:00-17:00, London, United Kingdom


Introduction
Advances in metabolomics, proteomics and genomics caused great excitement in anticipation for their potential use in toxicological investigations and risk assessments.  Toxicologists were some of the first to demonstrate the utility of the novel analytical and DNA analysis techniques in experimental health sciences. More than a decade on how or have these technologies helped us towards more secure risks assessments?

The meeting will include the presentation of the 2017 ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø Toxicology Award to Professor Andy Smith, MRC Toxicology Unit.

Early bird rates - £90 ·¬ÇÑÉçÇø / £120 non-members. Special rate available for IGHRC members.
