Seascape Innovation Network
Seascape collaborates
with leading edge researchers to work collaboratively on R&D
projects to solve specific research challenges
faced by pharma, biotech, chemical, nanotechnology, consumer,
agriculture and material science industries. Indeed, these fine
collaborators comprise our R&D network. We scout for projects among
govt. funded research projects as well as in commercial organizations.
OpenTox
- an EC
funded FP7 Research Project (1 September 2008 - 2011)
OpenTox is a EC funded project to
create an open source framework for unified access to toxicity
data and QSAR (quantitative
structure-activity relationships) models with supporting validation and
interpretation. Uses semantic web
principles and ontologies. Barry Hardy
of Douglas Connect in Basel, Switzerland, is managing the project and
coordinating the consortium of QSAR specialists which includes Sunil
Chawla of Seascape Learning collaborating with JNU, India. OpenTox
address aspects of the REACH
legislation and extend access to non-animal-testing methods for
toxicologists and other scientists who are not experts in QSAR.
