MWSOT's 26th Annual Meeting Focused on "Epigenetics in Toxicology"
Submitted by Philip J. Moos, Vice President, MWSOT
The Mountain West Regional Chapter of the Society of Toxicology (MWSOT)
held its 26th Annual Meeting on October 2–3, 2008, in Salt Lake City, Utah. The theme of the meeting was "Epigenetics in Toxicology," which coincidently aligns well with one of the major themes of the upcoming National Meeting in Baltimore. This regional meeting was hosted and supported by the Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology at the University of Utah. Additional support for this meeting came from National SOT, Covance, and the commercial suppliers VWR and Thermo Fisher Scientific.
Our regional chapter is broadly distributed geographically and is highly academic,
with the majority of the members being affiliated with the major research universities that
contain toxicology programs. One of the major objectives of our regional meeting is to
provide opportunities for trainees to present their work as well as a learning opportunity
through new interactions with scientists both from within our region and speakers invited to inspire new research or career opportunities. Full Epigenetics in Toxicology report.
