Welcome to the web home of toxicology at Emory University. There are several entities on campus that perform toxicological and environmental health research. The Emory Toxicology Center serves as the organizational umbrella for these programs. From this site you can access all of these components.

Graduate and Postdoctoral Training in Toxicology- Emory University has recently been awarded a Toxicology Training Grant from the National Institute of Environmental Health Science. The majority of trainees come from the Molecular and Systems Pharmacology Program within the Division of Biomedical and Biological Sciences.

Collaborative Center for Parkinson’s Disease Environmental Research- This program is funded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences and performs research on the environmental cause of Parkinson’s disease. Researchers at Emory collaborate with investigators at the Parkinson’s Institute in Sunnyvale, CA and at UCLA.

Center for Age-Related and Chronic Toxicity (CARCT)- This newly established Center is focused on chronic toxicity, an area of research that has, heretofore, been impossible to pursue. The advent of proteomic, metabolomic, and genomic technologies now allows researchers to examine the impact of chronic toxicity on human health. A key resource for this initiative lies in the Clinical Biomarkers Laboratory.
