[email protected]
Helena Hogberg, Ph.D., joined the NTP Interagency Center for the Evaluation of Alternative Toxicological Methods (NICEATM) within the division of translational toxicology (DTT) as a Staff Scientist in the end of 2021. She is conducting research drawing on her broad expertise in applying in vitro methods to assessing developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) potential of chemicals. Moreover, she is leading and contributing to validation efforts both in US and Europe.
She is or has been serving on a number of governmental entities, expert groups and scientific advisory boards including OECD, U.S. EPA, EFSA, Michael J Fox Foundation, and European Commission-funded projects.
Prior to joining DTT, she was the Deputy Director of the Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing (CAAT) within the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School for Public Health. She received her Ph.D. her in toxicology from Stockholm University but performed her research at the European Centre for the Validation of Alternative Methods (ECVAM) in Ispra, Italy.
