ONTOX's first annual meeting
 | |
The ONTOX annual meeting was held on 3-4 May 2022 in Brussels, Belgium. It summarized the initial work since the project's launch on 1 May 2021. The consortium met physically for the first time, which was an excellent opportunity to celebrate the first ONTOX birthday in person!

The meeting's theme was “Towards probabilistic risk assessment“. The project coordinator and scientific advisory board conveyed satisfaction with the initial results. These outcomes will be a solid basis for establishing new approach methodologies (NAMs) for chemical risk assessment.
