While competition is fierce, collaboration is also a key element in toxicology. By collaborating, toxicologists can pool resources, share data, and achieve common goals more efficiently. Initiatives like Tox21 exemplify how collaboration among government, industry, and academia can lead to significant advancements in toxicological research and testing. This collaborative spirit can help alleviate some competitive pressures by fostering a shared sense of purpose in addressing global toxicological challenges.
