The ESTIV Applied Training Course on In Vitro Toxicology is organised by the European Society of Toxicology In Vitro (ESTIV) in collaboration with its corporate members and industrial partners. This six-day course is designed to provide participants with up-to-date knowledge and practical skills in applied in vitro toxicology for chemical safety assessment. It combines expert lectures, practical demonstrations, and interactive case-study exercises covering the European regulatory framework, validation and application of alternative methods, cell and organ-specific models, omics technologies, in vitro kinetics, in vitro-in vivo extrapolation, pathway-based toxicology, nanotoxicology, and advanced technologies such as 3D printing and microfluidics. 

Target audience
This course is particularly relevant for doctoral and postdoctoral researchers, early-career scientists, and professionals from academia, industry, or regulatory agencies who are beginning or advancing their careers in in vitro toxicology. Applicants should ideally have a background in toxicology, biology, chemistry, biomedical or pharmaceutical sciences, veterinary sciences, or related disciplines.
