A short technical survey - for those involved in toxicology

Benefits and barriers to the use of computer-based methods: Online Survey and Report

Questionnaire imageIn recent years the EU have funded research into developing QSAR / In Silico (i.e. computer-based) methods for the evaluation of chemical toxicity.  This project is intended to communicate those findings so that the research is used more widely.  The online survey will help us to find out what information is needed.

Give  us your thoughts about the use of computer-based (in-silico) methods in toxicology, based on your experience of using them – or not using them.  

The first results have been reported (May 2011 – Download the report here) and results will guide our work over the next two years to disseminate and exploit this recent research on QSAR / In Silico methods.

New replies to the questionnaire will be reviewed by project partners. 

We really hope you can take a few minutes to complete it.

Please also forward this to other colleagues who you think could also offer useful insight.

Thank you!
