LINUS WIKLUND

PhD student at the Institute of Environmental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet

Linus research project is titled “A Novel Mechanism-Based Approach for Assessment of Developmental Toxicity of Endocrine Disruptors”. The project’s aim is to develop risk assessment methodology that utilizes mechanistic data from New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) to facilitate identification of developmental toxicity caused by endocrine disruptors (EDs), without using in vivo data. Linus’ research explores how Adverse Outcome Pathways (AOPs) can be used to connect mechanistic data from various NAMs to adverse outcomes, in order to predict adversity, and identifies challenges associated with this approach.
