The Toxicology Forum

Vision

The vision of the Toxicology Forum is to be recognized as the leading international toxicology organization that promotes and encourages open dialogue among government agencies, industry, academia, policymakers, and public interest groups concerned with public health issues; such interactions will facilitate sound policy decisions that protect and promote public health.

Mission

The mission of the Toxicology Forum is to encourage open dialogue on human health and environmental issues that drive public concerns, academic involvement, industry action, and regulatory decision-making. This is accomplished through organizing and conducting meetings among government granting and regulatory agencies, the scientific community (academia, government, and industry), and public interest groups. The dialogue at these meetings facilitates the resolution of conflicts, identifies research gaps, drives research agendas, and promotes sound regulatory and policy decision-making. The proceedings from meetings of the Toxicology Forum are made publicly available. The Toxicology Forum always strives to provide balanced programs, does not advocate for any particular scientific or policy position discussed during their meetings, and does not attempt to reach consensus from the discussions and presentations. The Toxicology Forum encourages participation in their forums from scientific and policy experts in government, industry, academia, and consumer interest groups, and they provide the necessary infrastructure support to accomplish this mission.

Facts

Beginning in 1989 through work at the International Management Group (IMG) and later at the Association and Development Group (ADG), the professional AIM leadership has progressively expanded capabilities that currently enable AIM to offer a complete and broad range of services. In the process, AIM has built a solid and diversified foundation to enhance future growth and cultivate further innovation. We are proud of our long-term relationships with our partners and our track record of service excellence and success.
