Advancing the Science of Developmental Neurotoxicity Testing for Better Safety 
Evaluation
Fourth International Conference on Alternatives for Developmental Neurotoxicity 
Testing (DNT)

“Toward Adverse Outcome Pathways and Fit-for-Purpose Assays for DNT”

May 12-14, 2014
The Inn at Penn, A Hilton Hotel
Philadelphia, PA

Developmental neurotoxicity from chemical exposures is a growing concern. The 
developing human nervous system is susceptible to pharmaceuticals and 
environmental contaminants, and exposure during development is known to cause 
lasting neurological deficits.

This conference will bring together diverse stakeholders from around the globe, 
including research scientists, regulators, industry representatives, academics, 
and pediatricians.
