Webinar: Time for a Change: Evidence-Based Approaches for the Biological Safety Assessment of Medical Devices

Join this free webinar where Ron Brown, toxicologist and former FDA risk assessor, will outline the need for a new and more agile approach for the biological safety assessment of medical devices. This presentation will identify the limitations associated with the current approach, which largely relies on animal-based tests that may have questionable clinical relevance. […]

Skin Sensitization by Altertox Academy

This two days hands-on training is hosted by acCELLerate. Skin sensitization is a complex systemic process and since several years, methods to replace animal tests have been validated and adopted by the OECD in this regard. These tests can be used as part of a weight-of-evidence or integrated using a Defined Approach (DA) to assess […]
