At the MRC Toxicology Unit, we are committed to ensuring that our cutting-edge research creates lasting benefits for human health, environmental safety and economic prosperity. Through our Knowledge Transfer and Exchange (KTE) activities, we support our researchers to share discoveries, build strategic partnerships and accelerate the translation of scientific innovation into real-world impact.

Delivering impact though toxicology research

Toxicology research is essential to everyday life, helping to:

  • Improve safety science for the pharmaceutical, consumer goods and chemical industries, enabling the development of safer medicines, products and chemicals
  • Advance exposure science by generating trusted evidence that supports regulators in reducing harmful exposures and safeguarding human health and our environment

Our approach to innovation

Our KTE strategy is designed to maximise the reach, value and impact of our research through three key priorities:

  • Research dissemination: communicating research findings to inform science, policy and practice
  • Partnerships: working with industry, policymakers and academic collaborators to expand our influence and accelerate innovation
  • Commercialisation: translating research into practical solutions, technologies and economic opportunities

Explore how these priorities are delivered in practice through our dissemination, partnerships and commercialisation work.
