To provide excellence in toxicology
BelTox was officially established in June 1989 and is member of the European Societies of Toxicology (EUROTOX).
The mission of BelTox is to provide training and facilitate contact and networking between scientists in all fields of toxicology and ecotoxicology in Belgium by promoting regular cutting-edge scientific exchange among students and professionals from scientific institutions, academia, authorities, industry, consulting companies and contract research organisations.
The scope of BelTox’s activities includes the study of potential adverse effects by (agro)chemical and pharmaceutical substances on health and the environment.
BelTox has a strong focus on the development of young talent and envisions to grow as an exchange platform and facilitator for in vitro to in vivo extrapolations in toxicology.
