The Society for the Advancement of Adverse Outcome Pathways (SAAOP) has been fostering the AOP community since 2012, supporting the AOP-Wiki infrastructure, collaborating with the OECD, and empowering the global AOP community through training, gardening and curation, guidance, and virtual events.
Now, we’re entering a new chapter!

Recent changes, including updated collaboration processes with OECD’s Advisory Group on Emerging Science in Chemicals Assessment (ESCA) and partnerships with the American Society for Cellular and Computational Toxicology (ASCCT) and the European Society of Toxicology In Vitro (ESTIV), mean more opportunities for you to connect, contribute, and shape the future of AOPs.
