Taking advantage of new models and tools to rethink efficacy and Safety Research

During the 2023 Safety Pharmacology Society (SPS) Conference in Brussels, Dr. Dany Salvail (IPST, QC, Canada) explained how experienced pharmacologists rely on alternate models combined with sophisticated measurement techniques that go well beyond the ICH guidelines to help sponsors truly understand and quantify liabilities associated with their lead compounds early on.
Swine, the other tox species

During the 2023 Safety Pharmacology Society (SPS) Conference in Brussels, Dr. Donald Hodges (CBSET, MA, USA) outlined how proven translational characteristics and historical data are enabling the wider adoption of swine as an alternative to dogs and Non-Human Primates in the context of shortages and rising costs.
Use of the rat in cardiovascular screening assays

During the 2023 Safety Pharmacology Society (SPS) Conference in Brussels, Dr. Michael Stonerook (AmplifyBio, OH, USA) highlighted the benefits and limitations of the rat model for cardiovascular screening assays.
Accurately Phenotyping Arrhythmia in rodents

Finding arrhythmias in rodents can be tedious, thrilling, and controversial. During the 2023 Society of Toxicology (SOT) conference in Nashville, Dr. Alex Carll discussed rodent ECG morphology and physiologic vs. pathologic arrhythmias in mice and rats.
