ENGLISH

LESSONS LEARNED: MILESTONES OF TOXICOLOGY

The primary, English-language version of the Milestones of Toxicology interactive poster is the result of a 2006 creative collaboration between Steven G. Gilbert, Ph.D., DABT (Founding Director of the Institute of Neurotoxicology and Neurological Disorders, USA, and Affiliate Professor in the Department of Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences, University of Washington, USA) and Antoinette (Toni) Hayes, MS (Northeastern University, USA; Research Scientist II, Exploratory Toxicology, Wyeth Biotech, USA; contributing author, Historical milestones and discoveries that shaped the toxicology sciences in: Molecular, Clinical, and Environmental Toxicology (Andreas Luch, ed. 2009)) for the 45^th Society of Toxicology [SOT] meeting.

                ENGLISH-LANGUAGE ABSTRACT:

Historical Milestones and Discoveries Which Shaped the Toxicology Sciences

“ “ Knowledge of the toxic and healing properties of plants, animals, and minerals has shaped civilization for millennia. The foundations of modern toxicology are built upon the significant milestones and discoveries of serendipity and crude experimentation. Throughout the ages, toxicological science has provided information that has shaped and guided society. This poster presentation examines the development of the discipline of toxicology and its influence on civilization by highlighting significant milestones and discoveries related to toxicology. The examples shed light on the beginnings of toxicology, as well as examine lessons learned and re-learned. This project is also an effort to examine how toxicology and the toxicologist have interacted with other scientific and cultural disciplines, including religion, politics, and the government. Toxicology has evolved to a true scientific discipline with its own dedicated scientists, educational institutes, sub-disciplines, professional societies, and journals. It now stands as its own entity while traversing such fields as chemistry, physiology, and pharmacology. We invite you to join us on a path of discovery and to offer your suggestions as to what are the most significant milestones and discoveries in toxicology. “ “
