Toxicology and pharmaceutical science publisher informa Healthcare, US, is set to launch Toxicast.com - a website dedicated to free monthly podcast interviews and commentary from key opinion leaders presenting the latest breakthroughs in the field of toxicology.
Rapid research advances make it critical for toxicology professionals to stay informed of breakthrough developments in this fast moving field. The site seeks to simplify the process of staying informed by allowing toxicology professionals to schedule alerts that deliver relevant, easy-to-digest news.
Toxicast.com's mission will center on providing easy access to all that's new within the toxicology field. In addition, the site will also feature links to informa Healthcare's extensive library of leading toxicology books and journals and the latest published articles. The site is projected to be an information hub for the entire toxicology community, as well as serving as a gateway for toxicology professionals to stay connected with their peers worldwide.
Launching the podcast series, Dr. Steven Gilbert, author of A Small Dose of Toxicology, addresses popular concerns about the toxins which surround us in our everyday lives. Later podcasts are to include interviews with Dr. Bernadene Magnuson - who will dispel commonly held myths regarding the safety of the sweetener Aspartame, and Dr. James Romano, Jr. discussing the inherent risks associated with chemical warfare for military and civilian populations.
