The Society of Toxicology (SOT) in conjunction with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN) have partnered to provide a colloquia series on Emerging Toxicological Science: Challenges in Food and Ingredient Safety. The colloquia will present scientific information that is high-quality, cutting-edge, future-oriented toxicological science and is intended to provide a well-grounded foundation to inform the work of FDA employees. On April 8, 2021, there will be a live webcast on the toxicology of nanoparticles. See https://www.toxicology.org/events/shm/fda/FDAColloquia-2021-Apr8.asp Richard Canady, Ph.D., and Kapal Dewan, MS, CLSp(CG), are Colloquium Co-Chairs. The agenda includes:

- Welcome, George Daston, SOT President, Procter & Gamble Company;
