Mission Vision and Goals

Vision

The IQF vision is to significantly reduce the use of animal tests
without loss of public safety

Mission

Our mission is to develop computerized tools as alternatives to animal testing in order to decrease our reliance on animal tests in regulation, research and education.

Goal

The goal of this 501(c)(3) charitable organization is to serve as a focal point for non-testing alternative methods in order to:

  • build a scientific consensus on the best approaches in predicting the outcomes of animal tests
  • make quality data from past animal tests more accessible to scientists around the world
  • create new methods of predicting chemical hazards that currently cannot be adequately predicted
  • demonstrate the reliability of QSAR-based methods in hazard identification
