Artificial intelligence as the new frontier in chemical risk assessment
The rapid progress of AI impacts various areas of life, including toxicology, and promises a major role for AI in future risk assessments. Toxicology has shifted from a purely empirical science focused on observing chemical exposure outcomes to a data ...

Organotypic Models to Study Human Glioblastoma: Studying the Beast in Its Ecosystem
Summary: Glioblastoma is a very aggressive primary brain tumor in adults, with very low survival rates and no curative treatments. The high failure rate of drug development for this cancer is linked to the high-cost, time-consuming, and inefficient ...

Microglia Increase Inflammatory Responses in iPSC-Derived Human BrainSpheres
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), together with 21st century cell culture methods, have the potential to better model human physiology with applications in toxicology, disease modeling, and the study of host-pathogen interactions.

Biomimetic heart platforms for drug development [PDF]
New drug development is currently very expensive and time-consuming. In addition, some drugs that are approved after animal and clinical trials have their approval revoked because of adverse effects.

Predicting toxicity of chemicals: software beats animal testing
We created earlier a large machine‐readable database of 10,000 chemicals and 800,000 associated studies by natural language processing of the public parts of Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) registrations until
