The Management Committee has approved the ITC conference grant awarded to the PhD Student, Ms. Joana Saraiva (Portugal) with the purpose of her attendance for the EUROTOX congress 2019  hold in Helsinki (8-11 September).

Her abstract entitled: “Hepatocyte-like cells in microfluidic devices: a new platform for disease modelling, drug screening and toxicology”
(Abstract ID: 250), submitted as “Poster” has been accepted and selected one of the 5 top posters presentation. She has adquired new concepts in pre-clinical methods in DILI that undoubtedly will help her to successfully continue her research on the field of DILI.

In order to support young investigator ́s career development and to encourage interactions among the participants in the COST Action 17112, we are launching a New Insights: Young Investigators Seminar Series. We propose this as a series of talks, ONCE monthly, given by early career investigators (ECIs) – with the supervision of their tutors (both hosts and mentors). The outline of the session would be a brief introduction of the speaker by the mentor, a talk around 45 min with 15 min left for discussion. Conferences will be held the 3rd Thursday of each month at 16.30h (CET) starting from June 17.
