Society for Adverse Outcome Pathways joins ASCCT and ESTIV

The Society for the Advancement of Adverse Outcome Pathways (SAAOP) is a small but dedicated group that was established in 2012 to support the cloud and server infrastructure of the AOP-Wiki and promote the global advancement of AOPs, in cooperation with the OECD. Activities the SAAOP has been involved in include providing Wiki access to AOP authors; providing guidance, gardening, education and training; and organizing virtual conferences and other activities.

Our societies have much in common and decided to join forces to save resources and infrastructure. In 2025, SAAOP members should transition to becoming a member of either ASCCT or ESTIV. When they join either society they will have the opportunity to indicate their desire to be part of an internal special SAAOP interest group. This group will continue to support the functions and activities of the SAAOP, with cross-society leadership and communication helping to ensure that the impact of the SAAOP can continue to grow.

If you would like to join the ASCCT SAAOP group, follow this link and indicate your preference on the membership form. Current members should notify the Secretary if they would like to join the group. Associate members of SAAOP, who previously were not asked to pay dues, will now need to pay dues to either ESTIV or ASCCT to continue membership with SAAOP.
