European Society of Toxicology In Vitro

ESTIV organizes free webinars on a monthly basis together with the American Society for Cellular and Computational Toxicology (ASCCT). These webinars cover a broad spectrum of topics relevant to the fields of in vitro and in silico toxicology. ESTIV members are welcome to propose topics and speakers at any time. All webinars are recorded, archived and available for ESTIV members.

The current EU Cosmetics Regulation prevents animal testing of cosmetics and cosmetic raw materials in animals, as well as it prevents introducing and marketing cosmetics tested in animals in the Europan market. EU commitment to the 3Rs and legislation introduced in this aspect is used as the gold standard around the world.

The in3 project is funded by the EU’s Marie Sklodowska-Curie Action – Innovative Training Network (MSCA-ITN for short) that aims to drive the synergistic development and utilisation of in vitro and in silico tools for human chemical and nanomaterial (NM) safety assessment.

The ESTIV Honorary Membership has been granted to Prof. Mathieu Vinken (ESTIV President 2016-2020) in recognition of his outstanding commitment and contributions to ESTIV.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and after thoughtful deliberation we have decided to postpone the congress to 2022 instead of the previously indicated dates in 2021. We kindly ask everyone to please save the new dates: 21-25 November 2022 .

The European Partnership for Alternative Approaches to Animal Testing’s (EPAA) 2020 3Rs Science Prize is now open for submissions.
