Estimados colegas,

Durante el mes de Junio se realizará la VI Edición del “Curso de Evaluación de la Seguridad y Expediente de Información del Producto Cosmético”, que la Universidad CEU San Pablo oferta como Título Propio (5 ECTS).

La Seguridad de los Productos Cosméticos es uno de los aspectos en que la legislación europea de cosméticos está tratando de mejorar, para garantizar el uso seguro de los productos en todo el mercado de la Unión Europea. Para ello, ha desarrollado una serie de requerimientos documentales de los productos, y ha creado la figura del Evaluador de la Seguridad de los productos cosméticos, como elementos clave del sistema de seguridad cosmética y de vigilancia del mercado por las autoridades sanitarias de cada país que actúan por delegación de la Comisión Europea.

La Universidad CEU San Pablo, se ha orientado a resolver los déficits de formación que estos nuevos requerimientos legales han planteado a la industria y los técnicos del sector de la cosmética. Así, durante los últimos años ha realizado varias ediciones del curso sobre Evaluación de la seguridad y expediente de información del producto cosmético

La nueva Edición está organizada por el área de Toxicología y el área de Farmacia y Tecnología Farmacéutica, cuenta con la colaboración de la Asociación Nacional de Perfumería y Cosmética (STANPA), la Sociedad Española de Químicos Cosméticos (SEQC), la Asociación Española de Farmacéuticos de la Industria (AEFI), el Colegio Oficial de Farmacéuticos de Madrid (COFM) y la participación de una veintena de profesores, especialistas de los diversos temas que se impartirán.

Dada la obligación de la utilización de métodos alternativos en la evaluación de los ingredientes de los productos cosméticos, en el curso participan miembros de la Red Española para el Desarrollo de Métodos Alternativos a la Experimentación Animal (REMA).

Durante el curso además de clases teóricas los alumnos elaborarán expedientes de información (dossier) e informes de evaluación de la seguridad de productos cosméticos formulados, tanto en grupo como individualmente.

Dear Members and Colleagues,

Due to the global instability that particularly affects Turkey, the Local Organising Committee of the 2016 EUROTOX congress has suggested the relocation of this year’s congress. Prof. Ali Esat Karakaya and Prof. Hilmi Orhan, together with colleagues from the Turkish Society have eagerly been working to make Istanbul an ideal location, however, due to unforeseeable reasons, and after careful evaluation of their proposal, the Executive Committee feels that it is in the best interest of EUROTOX to proceed with this change. We are confident that you can understand the reasons behind this decision and will support the relocation.

The new location is Seville, Spain and the venue is the Sevilla FIBES Congress Center. The dates of the congress will remain the same, September 4-7, 2016.

The updated congress website http://www.eurotox2016.com highlights the new details regarding the congress venue and accommodations, as well as important deadlines for the submission of abstracts (April 30th) and early bird registration (May 31st).

We invite you and strongly encourage you to help us disseminate the news of our relocation among your members, colleagues, scientific partners and professional network. With almost five months before the meeting, your active participation to promote the congress will help to ensure the success of this meeting.

Thank you for your kind consideration and on behalf of the 2016 LOC and the EUROTOX Executive Committee, we look forward to welcoming you to Seville in September.

Best regards,

Dear Colleagues,

IUTOX and the Mexican Society of Toxicology (SOMTOX) are pleased to announce the next triennial International Congress of Toxicology (ICT) to be held in October 2-6, 2016 at the Convention Center in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico. It is our great pleasure to invite you to the International Congress of Toxicology to be held for the first time in Latin America, in a city that is the gateway to the Mayan World.

The Congress major theme is “Toxicology and Global Sustainability”. This meeting will offer a forum for sharing basic and applied research in Toxicology and is aimed to convene international scientists to present their results related to the exposure to toxic agents, adverse effects, mechanisms of toxicity, preventive alternatives, normativity, etc, to strengthen the science-policy interface to foster the progress towards sustainability. The diverse sessions will provide a forum to exchange information, to establish collaborations and networking, and to discuss cutting-edge research.

As a Latin American country, Mexico is proud of the hospitality of its people and be home of 27 UNESCO´s World Heritage Sites, and it is extremely honored to host the XIV International Congress of Toxicology. Merida is known as the “White City”, and is considered as the cultural and tourist capital of the Mayan World. In addition, Merida is close to many delighting places, such as beautiful beaches of the Caribbean, small towns with colonial flavors, and the most important archeological sites of the Mayan culture: Chichén Itzá, Uxmal, Mayapán and Kabah.

SOMTOX offers to undertake its best efforts to achieve a substantial participation of different countries from the region and contribute to IUTOX to consolidate its presence around the world. Please mark the ICTXIV meeting on your calendar!

Kind regards,

Organizing Committee
