Making toxicology tools more accessible and interoperable
March 26, 2025 @ 11:00 – March 27, 2025 @ 15:00 CET
This workshop (for up to 40 participants) is a face-to-face, free-of-charge hands-on workshop, organised in the context of the first implementation study (INTOXICOM) of the ELIXIR Toxicology Community. See the ELIXIR Toxicology Community Whitepaper for more in-depth information about the community’s goals.
Several projects, such as NanoSolveIT, ONTOX, and VHP4Safety, already make computational toxicology services available. In this workshop, we will cover various aspects of making computational tools available and how they are used.
The first session will focus on what tools currently exist and how they relate to ELIXIR Europe. This session will be user-centric and will give an overview of what is available and how ELIXIR solutions like FAIRsharing and bio.tools can be used to find tools and what information about the tools they provide.
The first day continues with a session bridging data with the tools. This session is user-centric with experimental toxicologists, explaining how their data can integrate with these computational tools. For example, how data hosted on Figshare can be used in tools, or how computational workflows can bridge data repositories with computational tools.
The second day continues with a session on how computational tools can address data gaps and enhance experimental toxicology data. Topics in this session are expected to explain how computational solutions help give biological and toxicological context, how AI is used for predictions, and how large language models may help with literature research.
TARGET AUDIENCE
Toxicologists who are interested in learning more about computational toxicology and how it can be used for and with their experimental data.
