Vision

Vision: The Society is committed to uniting the global safety pharmacology community in the development and safe use of biologically active molecular entities by bridging across disciplines to allow the identification, characterization, and monitoring of potentially undesirable pharmacodynamic activities in non-clinical studies and guiding their translation into clinical trials.

Purpose: Leaders in Safety Pharmacology providing answers to critical questions that matter to patients, regulators and scientists.

Mission: Safety Pharmacology Society is a nonprofit organization that promotes knowledge, development, application, and training in Safety Pharmacology—a distinct scientific discipline that integrates the best practices of pharmacology, physiology and toxicology. The objective of Safety Pharmacology studies is to further the discovery, development and safe use of biologically active chemical entities by the identification, monitoring and characterization of potentially undesirable pharmacodynamic activities in nonclinical studies. The Safety Pharmacology Society also supports the human safety of drugs and biologicals by fostering scientific research, education, and dissemination of scientific information through meetings and other scientific interactions.

Strategic Goals:

  • Create Resources for the field of Safety Pharmacology.
  • Increase value for the membership (current and future).
  • Strengthen alignment of the Society’s resources.
