How Are Technological Advances Impacting Pharmacological Research in Toxicology?
Technological advancements are revolutionizing pharmacological research in toxicology. The advent of in silico methods, such as computer modeling and simulations, allows for the prediction of toxicological outcomes without the need for extensive animal testing.
Genomics and proteomics technologies are enabling researchers to understand how genetic variations influence susceptibility to toxicants. Additionally, in vitro assays and organ-on-a-chip technologies are providing more accurate and ethical alternatives to traditional animal models.
