Third International Conference on Alternatives for Developmental Neurotoxicity Testing (DNT3)

Developmental Neurotoxicity (DNT) is an issue of growing concern in the context of chemical exposure. The developing human nervous system is susceptible to toxicants, and exposure during development may cause lasting neurological deficits. This conference will bring together diverse stakeholders from around the globe (research scientists, regulators, industry representatives, academics, paediatricians etc.
