Big data in chemical safety assessment, challenges and opportunities

BIGCHEM BCN 2017: school about Computational Chemistry and Pharmacology. 

Traditional methods for chemical safety assessment based in animal testing are being replaced by alternatives approaches, more acceptable from an ethical point of view. This situation gives the opportunity to exploit the vast amount of data already obtained from in vivo studies and other sources, even if the application of this concept in practice is being more difficult than expected.
