Overview
- The establishment of a Register of Toxicologists sponsored by the Institute of Biology (now Society of Biology) and the British Toxicology Society was agreed on 22 September 1993.
- By identifying professional toxicologists, it is intended that the Register fosters competence in practice and makes available to the public authoritative sources of information on toxicological matters.
- Applications are open to experienced scientists engaged in the field of toxicology. Registered Toxicologists are required to have an acceptable education leading to an appropriate qualification together with any additional training required to achieve the necessary competence to practice their profession.
