Short Course: NURA

2020 Symposium

 

New Approach Methodology Use for Regulatory Application (NURA) in collaboration with the Association for the Advancement of Alternatives Assessment (A4) hosted two half day trainings to explore practical solutions for the safety assessment of cosmetics and consumer products. Lectures, discussions, and demonstrations helped attendees evaluate the advantages of new non-animal approaches and apply them to a range of consumer and occupational health needs. The first course introduced applied approaches to incorporate and customize read-across strategies for chemical assessments. The second course provided a deep dive into case-study illustrations of in vitro tools and Next Generation Risk Assessment.
