JRC scientists, in collaboration with University Milano Bicocca, Istituto Cantonale di Patologia in Locarno, and Department of Statistics and Computer Science, University of Florence, exploited the comprehension of the mechanisms underlying cell transformation using the In Vitro Cell Transformation Assay. The results recognised EGFR pathway as a starting point to identify the biochemical alterations underlying the morphological changes exploited in foci recognition and classification.

JRC scientists have contributed to the development of a reporting standard for the description of chemical exposure models, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) and other stakeholders. This work was carried out within the frame of the JRC's collaboration with the CEN.
