1. Introduction

1.1. Conference Introduction

The 1st International Electronic Conference on Toxics was held on 20–22 March 2024. Its main aim was to unite students, researchers, and scientists from around the world to present their work and exchange ideas on the exposure, effects, and risks of chemicals and materials in relation to humans and the natural environment as well as on the development of new approaches to assessing and/or managing the toxicological and ecotoxicological risks of chemicals and materials.

1.2. Conference Sections

  • Environmental Contaminants and Health.
  • Drug Toxicity and Safety.
  • Toxicological Mechanisms of Toxicants.
  • Identification and Quantification of Toxicants.
  • Novel Methods in Toxicology Research.
  • Toxicity Reduction and Environmental Remediation.
