The Safety Pharmacology Society is a nonprofit organization that promotes knowledge, development, application, and training in safety pharmacology—a distinct scientific discipline that integrates the best practices of pharmacology, physiology and toxicology. Vision The Society will lead the global safety pharmacology community in the development and safe medical use of biologically active molecular entities. We will achieve this vision by bridging across disciplines to predict, identify, characterize, monitor, and mitigate potentially undesirable pharmacodynamic activities in nonclinical studies and guiding their translation into clinical trials and beyond, to benefit all patients. Purpose: Safety pharmacology leaders providing guidance and answers to critical questions that matter to patients, regulators, and scientists.

?? How to get into a PhD programme in Oxford (called DPhil) ?? Deadline: December 3rd, 2024. ?? Important to get a scholarship. Three main routes: 1???? Through a departmental programme, for example, DPhil in Computer Science. Within the application, you will be naming one or more possible supervisors. They will be screening your application in terms of track record and also how your research interests align with theirs. It is important to read the supervisors latest papers before applying to work with them (and before contacting them). This is typically 3/3.5 years. Some links: DPhil in Computer Science, Department of Computer Science, University of Oxford: https://lnkd.in/d5QVZ6a6 For other programmes University of Oxford Course listing: https://lnkd.in/ewgc5xt8 2????Through a Centre of Doctoral Training (CDT) or Doctoral Training Programme (DTP). Here you do not name a supervisor. You would be admitted to a programme and you will choose rotations and supervisors in the first year. This is typically 4 years. For example, Healthcare Data Science, https://lnkd.in/eixeApkM Oxford Interdisciplinary Bioscience https://lnkd.in/ebsbuxJd 3?? ??Through specific scholarships (for example in collaboration with industry. This is similar to the first route but you apply to work on a specific project (still within a DPhil programme). ?? ?? Opportunity with us in Computational Cardiology in collaboration with AstraZeneca, on 'Strategies for novel cardiomyopathy treatments from organoids-informed computational multiscale modelling and simulation': https://lnkd.in/e8Hs-cD2 You apply through the DPhil in Computer Science programme, but selecting this particular project: https://lnkd.in/d5QVZ6a6

Congratulations to the authors and SPS Members involved in the publication "The state?of?the?art in secondary pharmacology and its impact on the safety of new medicines," in the Nature Reviews Drug Discovery. It was recognized during the 2024 SPS Annual Meeting as the selection for the "Most Impactful Publication Award." The Most Impactful Publication Award is given by SPS to recognize an exceptional, recently published paper that impacts scientific advancement in safety pharmacology.
Earlier this year, the IQ Consortium's In Vitro Secondary Pharmacology Profiling Working Group published their article, "The state?of?the?art in secondary pharmacology and its impact on the safety of new medicines," in the Nature Reviews Drug Discovery. This publication has recently been honored by the Safety Pharmacology Society as the "Most Impactful Safety Pharmacology Publication of the Year." Congratulations to the authors!
