The OECD webinars on Emerging Science provide an opportunity to chemical safety professionals to learn and discuss new methodologies developed by research globally. These new approaches might make their way into future regulatory applications, but a dialogue will help scientists understand the needs of the regulatory community, and allow regulators to ask the relevant questions early on. Video recordings of our webinars are made available online afterwards.

 

REGISTER FOR THE wEBINAR ON LIVER MODELS FOR INDUCTION, CLEARANCE AND TOXICITY

 

Join us on 11 February 2019 to learn and discuss new methodologies on liver models for induction, clearance and toxicity. The speakers will present the benefits compared to existing methods in place, the types of chemicals tested, the results obtained, the transferability and economic aspects for routine testing, and any known limitation to the technologies and their applications.

Duration: 1 hour 15 (Presentation of 15-20 minutes followed by Q&A).

 

 
Speakers:

• Stephen Ferguson: 2D vs 3D HepaRG spheroid models
• Jérôme Caron: HepatoPearls; Encapsulated cryo/fresh human hepatocyte spheroids
• Danilo Tagle: NIH Microphysiological Systems program: Liver on Chip system
