Swiss Society of Toxicology
The community of experts in Switzerland for research and safety assessment of xenobiotics, such as chemicals and biologicals.
The community of experts in Switzerland for research and safety assessment of xenobiotics, such as chemicals and biologicals.
The mission of the society is to protect the health and safety of humans, animals and the environment by working toward the following goals:
Goals of the Swiss Society of Toxicology
- Promoting research and implementation of new toxicological approaches for risk assessment.
- Providing and supporting education and training in the field of toxicology.
- Creating forums for exchange of knowledge, ideas, experiences and to promote networking.
- Representing Toxicology as a professional discipline.
- Recognizing the valuable contributions of members to the field and community of toxicologists, and promoting their impact.
- Collaborating with toxicological and related societies around the world.
The registry consists of highly qualified professionals with high responsibility standards. It also allows their European registration.
Goals of the Swiss Registry of Toxicology
- Seize professionals with qualitatively high training degree and responsibility.
- Consider the variety of the basic training.
- Enable an European-wide acknowledgment.
- Complement and not compete against profession-specific training (physician, veterinarians, pharmacists).
- Protect the profession of the toxicologists on one hand and acquaint it with a broad public on the other hand.
The programme focuses on current practices in biomedical research concerning the use of animal experimentation and alternative new approach methodologies (NAMs). The emphasis is on understanding novel strategies and good practice in replacement, reduction and refinement of animal testing. The course is designed for professionals in life sciences, and addresses research methodologies in various sectors (public and private).
We are excited to invite you to the first International PBPK Conference! Dedicated to advancing the science of PBPK modelling in pharmaceutical sciences, this conference aims to create a global, collaborative environment for scientific exchange on the present and future of PBPK. This event offers a unique platform to connect with leading scientists, exchange groundbreaking ideas, explore the latest advancements in PBPK, and foster collaboration across all disciplines and sectors.
It is our pleasure to invite you to the Annual Spring Meeting of the Swiss Society of Pharmacology
& Toxicology, which will be held in person on Wednesday April 22, 2026. This year’s topic will be Human Model Systems in Pharmacology and Toxicology. The meeting will connect researchers interested or working in the fields of experimental pharmacology,
clinical pharmacology, clinical, experimental or regulatory toxicology, and in pharmaceutical
medicine. The structure of the program will allow each discipline to present their
field and its perspectives.
