WHAT IS THIS MEETING ABOUT?

Consistent with previous symposiums, the agenda will focus on facilitating and expanding research collaborations among scientists, healthcare professionals, and industry. We also anticipate additional sessions which focus on key healthcare challenges and opportunities in clinical toxinology, toxinology intersections with computational science and engineering, establishing new multi-disciplinary collaborations, and facilitating partnerships with pharmaceutical and healthcare companies.

Members include medical clinicians, veterinarians, basic scientists, zoo and collection managers, animal scientists, herpetologists, antivenom researchers and developers, drug developers, and others with an interest in venomous animals and their venoms.

Toxicon is the official journal of NAST. 

Founded in July, 2012, The North American Society of Toxinology (NAST) is a North America-based, international, multidisciplinary organization dedicated to the advancement of the science of all things venomous.
