In November 2015, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) proposed a collaboration with the OECD to explore the possibility to establish a battery of in vitro assays for the investigation of developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) potential of chemicals. A project proposal was submitted by EFSA to the Test Guidelines Programme for the organisation of a joint international workshop. This report, agreed by the co-chairs, summarises the discussions and outcomes of the joint OECD/EFSA workshop on DNT, held on 18-19 October, 2016, in Brussels, Belgium.
