An integrated research program in human toxicology to ensure rapid translation of results into practice and regulation

在澳大利亚，与毒品有关的死亡占所有死亡的6.6%（澳大利亚统计局，2009年）。在亚太地区的大部分农村地区，农药中毒和蛇咬伤是主要问题。我们提出了一个综合的和国际性的人类毒理学研究计划，包括药物和化学中毒，严重的药物不良反应，蛇和蜘蛛咬伤。我们的重点是应用研究，以发现新的问题，并迅速将早期发现转化为更好的治疗，法规和政策。

Drug-related deaths in Australia account for 6.6% of all deaths (ABS 2009). In much of the rural Asia-Pacific, pesticide poisoning and snakebite are major problems. We propose an integrated and international human toxicology research program covering medicine and chemical poisoning, serious adverse drug reactions, snake and spider bite. Our focus is on the applied research needed to detect new problems and rapidly translate early findings into better treatment, regulations & policy.
