What are some future areas of research in age and sex-specific toxicology?
Future research in age and sex-specific toxicology is likely to focus on genomics and personalized medicine. Advances in genetic and epigenetic profiling can offer deeper insights into how age and sex influence toxicological responses. Another promising area is the study of endocrine disruptors and their varied effects on different populations. Moreover, as the global population ages, there will be a growing need to understand the toxicological impacts of polypharmacy and the interaction of multiple drugs in elderly individuals.
