    I metodi alternativi alla sperimentazione animale (Alternative methods to animal testing)

    May 11, 2010

    Istituto di ricerche farmacologiche Mario Negri, via La Masa 19, Milan (Italy)

    The aim of this course, is to give an overview of the "non testing" alternative methods to animal testing, for the prediction of molecular properties by means of QSAR (Quantitative Structure Activity Relationship) methods, or extrapolating the informations based on data relative to similar compounds (read-across methods).

    Note: The course will be held in Italian language.

    The course will provide an introduction to the use of alternative methods, in particular QSAR, for assessing chemical properties and toxicity data for REACH compounds. CAESAR models and other comparative applications will be tested and results will be critically discussed. The course is not aimed to teach all QSAR features but recommended practices to deal with in silico methods in a critical way.
