RIFM’s Second Annual Virtual Science Symposium is Nov. 29

The Research Institute for Fragrance Materials will host its Second Annual Virtual Science Symposium on Wednesday, Nov. 29.

 

During this four-hour, multi-track symposium, RIFM’s scientists will highlight recently published and ongoing research that will significantly impact the future of the science supporting fragrance safety. In addition, RIFM’s staff will provide details and answer questions about its internationally recognized safety assessment program.

The symposium’s highlights will include the clustering of fragrance ingredients into similar safety profiles; ensuring the safe use of Natural Complex Substances (NCS, or “Naturals”); RIFM’s Environmental Framework 2.0; and New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) focusing on alternatives to animal testing.

 

“This year’s symposium will provide fragrance safety stakeholders worldwide the opportunity to meet and interact with RIFM scientists and staff as well as several of RIFM’s collaborators working to ensure that the world can safely enjoy their favorite fragranced products,” said RIFM’s safety assessment manager, Danielle Botelho, Ph.D. 

 

Said RIFM President Anne Marie Api, Ph.D., “Collaboration, strategy, and global solutions are the three keywords that drive this year’s event, setting the tone for a powerful discussion to shape the future of fragrance safety. “Everyone from those creating fragrances to regulators and consumers can ask questions and gain insights into the science supporting the safe use of fragranced products.”
