The course will introduce the use of models relevant for cosmetic ingredients, addressing properties like mutagenicity (Ames test and micronucleus), skin sensitizations, NOAEL, and others for human toxicity. The course will address hazard and exposure, such as skin permeation. New models, developed in the last year, will be also presented.

Questions addressed within the course will be:

How to evaluate the reliability of the models?

How to compare results from different models?

How to identify relevant chemicals for read across?

How to integrate the results from in silico models and read across?

Draft agenda to follow soon.

The training will only take place if minimum of 5 participants is reached.
