Deliverable 11. Report on omics and validation technologies.

Description of what we have done the meetings, training schools, STSM workshop performed, the reports, documents, technical diagrams, software etc. with reference – link to the website or other external document of interest.

In the development of new active substances, consideration of possible effects on non-target organisms is becoming increasingly important. Assessment of environmental effects is still in its infancy in drug development. Here, the One Health approach often still falls short, as environmental health is an integral part of this concept, in addition to animal and human health. Efficient, innovative but also standardizable test methods and assays are needed to assess the behavior and effects of active ingredients released into the natural environment. The application of the “omics” approach in ecotoxicological testing is at its frontier and requires careful consideration regarding the context in which the samples are collected and about  standardization related to procedures adopted, including software. Data analysis is important because also at that level many software are available. Additional we include the concept of Adverse Outcome Pathway.
