Draft:American Association for Cellular and Computational Toxicology

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The American Association for Cellular and Computational Toxicology (AACCT)[1] is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing toxicology through innovative cell-based methods and computational approaches. The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and the Institute for In Vitro Sciences formed the ASCCT in 2010 to harness this momentum and foster cooperation and dialog among North American scientists, regulators, and nongovernmental organizations from the pharmaceutical, chemical, pesticide, and consumer product sectors.[2]

AACCT promotes technologies like high-throughput screening, omics, and AI-driven models to reduce reliance on animal testing and improve safety assessments. ASCCT is closely affiliated with the European Society of Toxicology in Vitro. Toxicology in Vitro and ALTEX are the official journals of ASCCT.[3]
