Results from the afternoon working groups

In the afternoon session, four discussion groups were planned:

  • Working group 1. Case study: in silico models for prioritisation and RTD
  • Working group 2. Case study: in silico models for C&L
  • Working group 3. Case study: in silico models on environmental and ecotoxicological endpoints for registration
  • Working group 4. Case study: in silico models on toxicological endpoints for registration

Each participant has been asked to select a first and a second choice for the group to join in order to make it possible for the organizer to better arrange the groups.
