Just a little more time to submit your proposals. Deadline extended to March 15.
Take advantage of the extra time to submit your proposals to the EUROTOX 2023 Congress taking place September 10-13, 2023, in Ljubljana, Slovenia. The congress theme is “Toxicology - multidisciplinary science leading to safer and sustainable life”, seeking to address topics dealing with different disciplines. Working together, these disciplines with their diverse perspectives contribute to promoting and encouraging the use of new and innovative techniques and strategies, that will continue to reduce the risks to human health and the environment. Submissions in line with this theme are strongly encouraged.
Please make sure to follow the guidelines when preparing your proposal, and use the official template to submit your proposals by March 15, 2022.
We urge all Individual Members, Member Societies, Speciality Sections, and SubCommittees, as well as our scientific and industry partners to contribute. Only a common effort will guarantee a high quality program to keep our annual congress a reference point for the toxicologists not only in Europe but, also internationally.
To download the guidelines and submission form, visit the EUROTOX website.
