2 SET 2024 · In this podcast, recent findings from toxicological studies on the emissions produced during fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printing are discussed. The use of low-cost FFF 3D printers is on the rise in households, businesses, and educational settings, enabling the creation of 3D objects from digital models. However, this process releases volatile organic compounds, ultrafine particles, and metal oxides, which could potentially pose health risks to users. Of significant concern is the potential harm to children, who may be disproportionately affected due to uncontrolled exposure to ultrafine particles in confined spaces, such as classrooms and libraries. Dr. Kyle Mandler comprehensively addresses the characteristics and human health effects of these FFF 3D printer emissions and propose effective recommendations for mitigating exposure to these emissions.

16 AGO 2024 · This podcast is part of a series on different career paths in the field of toxicology. In this episode, Dr. Chuck Schwartz, PhD, DABT, shares the career path that led to his current position as the principal consulting toxicologist and managing member of a consulting practice that specializes in the fields of occupational and quality toxicology. Dr. Schwartz's experiences as a corporate director and then consultant in the field of toxicology will be discussed.
1 LUG 2024 · Drug-induced seizures are a major concern for central nervous system active pharmaceuticals during development. Currently, there are no guidelines for interrogating and mitigating seizure liability associated with new pharmaceuticals. Because of the risks to patient safety during clinical trials, the understanding of nonclinical characterization that informs the translation of risks to humans is an area of intense interest among drug developers and regulators. A Continuing Education course was held at the 2022 ACT Annual Meeting in Denver, Colorado, where Dr. Delatte presented on identifying seizure liability in nonclinical studies. In this interview with Dr. Delatte, we discuss nonclinical findings that are indicative of seizure liability and appropriate approaches to characterize risks. Many drug classes carry seizure liability which may trigger preliminary studies, such as kindling studies, to understand risks prior to conducting a repeat-dose toxicology study. A description of premonitory signs of seizure in dose-range findings and repeat-dose toxicology studies is also discussed. Finally, this talk briefly discusses when nonclinical EEG studies are warranted and how to leverage the data from general toxicology studies to design an informative EEG study. Learning objectives of this talk are: (1) set up a drug development program for drugs in a class with seizure liability; (2) identify seizure liability in nonclinical studies; and (3) examine the elements from general toxicology studies that inform the pivotal EEG study.

4 MAR 2024 · Mentors meet with you, listen to you, and provide advice. Sponsors have influence, connections, and can speak to your talents, abilities, and potential in new opportunities. Learning how to distinguish between the two and identify a sponsor that can help support your key growth and access to future opportunities is a critical skill needed to support one's professional and personal development.
In this ToxChats© episode, we interview Dr. Lorrene Buckley, Vice President at Eli Lilly & Company. Dr. Buckley is a board-certified toxicologist with over 30 years of experience in the practice of toxicology. In her current position, she is responsible for the design and execution of a nonclinical safety program and global regulatory submissions and interactions of drugs in the development and commercialization phases. Her mentorship of early and late-stage professionals is an important contribution to the success and growth of toxicologists in our field. For this professional development podcast, Dr. Buckley discusses the importance of identifying an appropriate sponsor to support your growth and success in the workplace.

29 GEN 2024 · In this podcast, Dr. Tetyana Cheairs gives a detailed overview of the fertilized egg model and how it is currently being used in safety assessment studies. She then describes important ways in which toxicologists and drug development programs could benefit from utilizing the fertilized egg model. This podcast is incredibly informative and is tailored to be understood and enjoyed by a broad scientific audience. Dr. Cheairs is an Assistant Professor of Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology at New York Medical College, where she leads an innovative research program focused on using nonanimal models to study the hazardous effects of chemicals. As a result of her active involvement in teaching activities, she was appointed as Assistant Dean for PhD Programs at the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences in 2019.

22 GEN 2024 · In this ToxChats© podcast, Dr. Elise Lewis provides a thorough background on the use of rabbits in DART and the future direction of their use as alternative species for other types of nonclinical safety studies. Topics include advantages and challenges, sourcing, behavior, physiology, and the practicality of rabbits, and the translatability of rabbit data to other nonclinical species and humans. Dr. Elise Lewis is currently the Principal Director of Toxicology at Charles River Laboratories and has significant experience in reproductive, developmental, and juvenile toxicology.

15 GEN 2024 · In this ToxChats© episode, we interview Dr. Chris Christou, Director of Preclinical Imaging and Research Laboratories at the South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute. Dr. Christou discusses the history of sheep as a preclinical species for medical device testing, novel groundbreaking neurological disease models, and the use of sheep as an alternative model in general toxicology studies. Critical regulatory standards and international guidelines are discussed to ensure successful submissions with the US Food and Drug Administration, the Australia Therapeutic Goods Administration, and the Australia New Zealand Therapeutic Products Agency.

8 GEN 2024 · During the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a reduction in the availability of nonhuman primates available for conducting nonclinical toxicity assessments, and as a result, the FDA released a guidance in 2022. This sparked interest in evaluating the feasibility of performing safety studies with alternative nonrodent species or other models. This podcast is the first in a series of several podcasts sponsored by ACT, in which experts in the industry are interviewed about their experiences working with these nontraditional models.
