4th SSbD Boot Camp
PARC, the EU partnership for the risk assessment of chemicals, is organizing the 4th SSbD Boot Camp, in Athens (Greece), from 21 to 23 October 2026. The event will bring together participants interested in applying the Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) framework in practical research and innovation contexts. Building on previous SSbD Boot Camps, this edition will provide participants with fundamental insights into SSbD thinking and practice, while offering hands-on experience with tools (methods, models, workflows) relevant to SSbD implementation.
Description
The Boot Camp is a two-day event, consisting of one full day and two half-days, with a highly engaging and interactive programme including expert presentations and hands-on training on the PARC SSbD toolbox and other tools for SSbD.
The programme will focus on key aspects of SSbD, such as scoping analysis, molecular redesign, early screening, and decision making.
Applications will be evaluated by field experts and decisions on successful applicants will be announced via email by the end of August/beginning of September 2026.
Participation in the PARC SSbD Boot Camp is free of charge. However, participants will need to cover the costs of their travel and accommodation.
