      EUROTOX is a Federation of more than 40 European societies of toxicology representing 7,500 European toxicologists. The annual congresses rotate from one European country to another providing diversity to the venues and contents of the congress. The number of participants is approximately 1,500. EUROTOX 2019 will take place in Helsinki, Finland from 8 to 11 September. The congress will offer a change to tackle with the burning chemical safety challenges of the next decade. The theme of the Congress is “Toxicology – Science Providing Solutions”. The venue is Finlandia Hall, a building full of European history and at the same time a modern and a highly sophisticated venue even for the most demanding conference delegate. The congress program will include a variety of topics dealing with new and emerging technologies, personalized medicine, and epidemiology of exposure to chemicals. Surely climate change and the modifying effects of the arctic environment will have their place in the program. Learn more about our presence at Eurotox and research presented by others.

      Reduced Risk Products ("RRPs”) is the term we use to refer to products that present, are likely to present, or have the potential to present less risk of harm to smokers who switch to these products versus continuing smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. Our RRPs are smoke-free products that produce an aerosol that contains far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
