The AOP Framework Study. Understanding the challenges of chemicals regulation
European Commission Joint Research Centre. Chemical Safety and Alternative Methods Unit.
2018-2020
What are the challenges that chemicals regulation currently face? What are the main obstacles to using non-animal, alternative methods in chemicals regulation? What is the role of knowledge management in overcoming these challenges and obstacles? In particular, how can the AOP (Adverse Outcome Pathways) Framework facilitate better chemicals regulation today?
These are the questions addressed by this project, undertaken in collaboration with Stonehaven Consulting.
