Xzencis partners with ApconiX to bring Translational Safety insights to ICT Maastricht

Mölnlycke, Sweden: – Expert pharma and life sciences safety consultant Xzencis will contribute its founder and Managing Director Dr. Steffen Ernst as a prominent translational safety expert at the upcoming 16^th– XVIth International Congress of Toxicology (ICT2022) in Maastricht.

Dr. Ernst will join long term collaborators Dr. Richard Knight and Prof. Ruth Roberts of UK-based ApconiX Ltd on their stand at Booth 63 in the Exhibition Zone at the MECC exhibition centre in Maastricht.

New safety approaches

ApconiX was founded in 2015 as an integrated toxicology and ion channel company providing new approaches to world-class nonclinical safety expertise for biotech, biopharma and academia.

Dr. Ernst’s presence on the ApconiX stand provides ICT toxicology professionals to hear his insights as a consulting expert on a radically new approach to drug and patient safety that goes beyond the limitations of traditional pharmacovigilance (PV).

Translational Safety Medicine

Dr. Ernst and Dr. Knight were co-authors of key chapters on toxicology that form part of the most comprehensive book on Translational Medicine, Principles of Translational Science in Medicine: From Bench to Bedside, edited by Prof. Dr. Martin Wehling, of the University of Heidelberg’s Clinical Pharmacology Department in Mannheim.

This is part of a vision of a more proactive and forward-looking approach to safety management, as well as stressing transational safety as a discipline covering the whole product life cycle and all parts of the organisation that Dr. Ernst will share with ICT visitors and delegates as part of the ApconiX team.
