RISK-HUNT3R Stakeholder Symposium, 13-14 June 2023

RISK-HUNT3R Stakeholder Symposium, 13-14 June 2023

The RISK-HUNT3R project is pleased to invite all interested stakeholders to its upcoming Stakeholder Symposium, taking place on the 13th and 14th of June 2023 at Hotel Zuiderduin in Egmond aan Zee, Netherlands.

The event will be dedicated to RISK-HUNT3R partners and stakeholders from industry, regulatory organizations, and international initiatives on new approach methods (NAM)-based chemical risk assessment.

The objectives for the participants of the RISK-HUNT3R Stakeholder Symposium are to:

  • Learn about the ASPIS Profiling Algorithm (ASPA), a platform to implement and operationalize NGRA;
  • Learn how and where NAMs populate the ASPA modules (hazard, exposure, toxicokinetics & IVIVE, and data integration);
  • Engage with the RISK-HUNT3R consortium, learn about further ASPA development, and identify collaborative inroads;
  • Get familiar with the NGRA ecosystem and interact with key experts from ongoing chemical risk assessment initiatives.

 

The agenda is available to all. Online registration is closed.

ASPIS Open Symposium during ESTIV Congress 24-25 November 2022

ASPIS Open Symposium during ESTIV Congress 24-25 November 2022

The ASPIS Open Symposium happened during the 21st European Society of Toxicology In Vitro (ESTIV) Congress on 24-25 November 2022 in Sitges, Barcelona (Spain), a bi-annual appointment aiming to create a forum of scientists in a unique atmosphere for discussions and knowledge exchange focusing on the development of in vitro and in silico approaches.

During this event, the ASPIS cluster presented the work performed by the three Horizon 2020 projects composing the consortia (ONTOX, PrecisionTOX, and RISKHUNT3R). The objectives of the ASPIS Open Symposium included: 

  • Increasing confidence in and promoting NAM regulatory uptake; 
  • Delineating foreseen ASPIS impact on regulatory issues; 
  • Engaging young researchers and supporting scientific networking; 
  • Facilitating interactions among ASPIS and international stakeholders
KICK-OFF MEETING OF THE ASPIS CLUSTER

KICK-OFF MEETING OF THE ASPIS CLUSTER

On the 3rd and 4th of November 2021, the Final Symposium of the EU-ToxRisk project was held in Brussels, Belgium, and online. The purpose of this event was for the EU-ToxRisk consortium partners to present their results, and to discuss the different strategies and methods developed within the project with external stakeholders.  

This meeting was a way for the EU-ToxRisk project to pass the torch to the RISK HUNT3R consortium. and to formally introduce, the ASPIS cluster, which is a collaboration of the H2020 funded projects ONTOXPrecisionTOX and RISK-HUNT3R 

During the ASPIS Kick-off meeting, which constituted the fourth part of the event, each project was presented as well as the purpose and planned implementation of the ASPIS Cluster. It was an opportunity for cluster members to meet each other in person and to exchange about how the projects can collaborate together.

General Assembly Meeting, 4-8 July 2022

From 4 to 8 July 2022, the General Assembly Meeting of RISK-HUNT3R took place in Egmond aan Zee, the Netherlands.

This event was an opportunity for the project members to discuss together progress and challenges towards NGRA, during the general assembly and parallel sessions.

Young researchers presented their work through posters and short oral presentations and took part in different training sessions and workshops organised in connection with the consortium meeting.
