Short for “RISK assessment of chemicals integrating HUman centric Next generation Testing strategies promoting the 3Rs”, is a European Research & Innovation project funded under the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 programme.

RISK-HUNT3R is the new European effort to develop a new modular framework for animal-free next generation risk assessment (NGRA) driven by world-leading experts from various disciplines.

The RISK-HUNT3R vision is to combine human exposure scenarios, in vitro hazard assessment, and NAM-based toxicokinetic and toxicodynamic testing, followed by integrative risk assessment via computational approaches and decision-making based on weight of evidence.

The 5-year project runs from June 2021 with a funded budget of €22.9M. RISK-HUNT3R builds on the outcomes of the Horizon 2020 toxicological flagship project EU-ToxRisk, ending by the end of 2021. 

EwC coordinates the development, deployment and support of the RISK-HUNT3R knowledge infrastructure including databases, knowledge graphs and workflows supporting all research and case study activities on the project.
