Conferences and publications – TOXIN

Our first scientific paper derived from ToxIN project is now published in the prestigious Journal of Hazardous Materials (IF2 = 12.2).

In this paper, we demonstrated how integration of in vitro testing with PBTK modeling and analysis of sensitive populations can advance the assessment of risks from PFOA exposure. Our results indicate that long-term exposure to low PFOA concentrations can cause endothelial cell damage and that individual populations – including those with kidney, liver disease and obesity – are at higher risk compared to a healthy adult population.

Our young team member have presented findings of our project at the FEBS Young Scientists’ Forum and at the 49th FEBS Congress, held in Istanbul, Turkey.

Our team member Marija Opacic participated in the 35th Annual Meeting of the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) Europe, which took place from 11 to 15 May in Vienna, Austria. The main theme of this year’s meeting – “Innovation for Tomorrow: Progress in Safe and Sustainable Concepts” – fully corresponded to the idea of the ToxIN project. At this occasion, some of our project results were presented to the wider scientific community,

New accomplishments of ToxIN project have been presented at the International Student Conference DISC2024. Four member of our team have participated, and six talks/presentations have been given to the young scientific audience.

Members of our team have presented some of the ToxIN project results at the Conference of Serbian Biochemical Society held in Kragujevac, Serbia
