The NC3Rs and Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) are 
working together to host a workshop aimed at addressing the barriers for uptake 
of human tissue approaches for safety assessment of new drugs.

The intended audience is key influencers from industry, contract research 
organisations, regulatory bodies, researchers developing human tissue models 
applicable in this area, and companies providing human tissue services to the 
research community.

Attendance at the meeting is free, but registration is essential. The closing 
date for registrations is 1 July 2014.

Key objectives:

 *   Share experiences and best practice in the use of human tissue for safety 
assessment, focussing particularly on safety pharmacology.
 *   Identify and address the barriers to uptake of human tissue-based 
approaches.
 *   Work as a community in developing a strategy for overcoming some of the 
barriers to wider uptake of human tissue-based approaches to benefit safety 
assessment and the 3Rs.
 *   Provide a forum for linking safety scientists with experts in the 
development and application of human tissue models to translate these 
approaches in to safety assessment.

Active participation in the workshop is essential. Participants are encouraged 
to submit posters relating to human tissue-based approaches to safety 
assessment and the 3Rs. The deadline for submitting poster abstracts is 10 June 
2014.
