Dr Tatyana Doktorova to open Douglas Connect's new lab
Named Douglas Connect’s Senior Toxicologist in March 2017, Tatyana was soon at the heart of Douglas Connect’s community development efforts (e.g., OpenTox), its support of collaborative research projects (EUToxRisk, OpenRiskNet), and its development of innovative solutions in safety assessment for industry pursued within ToxHQ. She has also taken on responsibility for creating the company’s new Safety Assessment Laboratory.
The New Journey
The new journey from research to industry and regulatory practice
One of the main messages of the Global Regulatory Science Summit held in Brasilia in September was that decision-making about safety assessment is undergoing a major transition. Many new types of heterogeneous scientific data must now be integrated as evidence into assessments. And, as medicine becomes more personalised, increasing amounts of data on individuals must also be managed.
