The future of toxicology will likely involve advancements in technology and methodology, allowing for more precise and rapid assessments of chemical risks. However, political and economic pressures will continue to be a challenge. As such, the field must remain vigilant in upholding scientific rigor and transparency. Emphasizing interdisciplinary collaboration and embracing new approaches, like in vitro and computational toxicology, can help address some of the limitations imposed by economic constraints. Ultimately, a commitment to evidence-based decision-making will be critical for ensuring that toxicology effectively protects public health and the environment in the face of ongoing challenges.
