ORCHESTRA

We asked stakeholders for their thoughts about the use of computer-based (QSAR/In-silico) methods in toxicology, based on their experience of using them – or not using them.

The questionnaire was specifically designed for regulators, industry specialists, toxicologists, QSAR developers, scientists and any others with specialist knowledge or experience. In May 2011 we published the report of answers received to date. Download the report here. New replies will be reviewed by the project partners, so give us your own opinion if you wish!

This shorter questionnaire is our invitation to policy makers, industry managers, educators, political leaders, NGOs, investors, citizens and all others who are not specialists in toxicology to comment on some of the issues that are raised and/or addressed by computer-based (in silico) methods. It will help us to find out what people regard as the priorities, as well as what information is needed and how we should communicate it.
