REACHing for alternatives to animal testing
A webinar series on modern testing strategies for REACH

The PETA International Science Consortium, Ltd., and Chemical Watch are 
presenting a free webinar series focusing on alternative methods and testing 
strategies that can be used to meet REACH requirements. The webinars will be of 
interest to industry toxicologists, those registering chemicals for the first 
time, companies who would like to know more about validated non-animal tests 
that are available and how companies are using them, and REACH consultants.
