These abstracts are among the many papers presented at the recent World Congress on Alternatives to Animal Testing held in Bologna, Italy in August of this year. They represent, in many respects, some of the most innovative work currently underway in the field of in vitro dermatology. Many thanks to the publishers of this special edition of ATLA for allowing their display at invitroderm.com! More to come at our next posting…
