The Fellowship in Toxicology is an in-depth 12-month advanced training course for healthcare professionals who want to gain specialized knowledge in clinical, environmental, occupational, forensic and pharmaceutical toxicology. The programme combines structured online learning, case-based discussions, simulation training, clinical exposure and expert mentorship to build advanced skills in the diagnosis, management, prevention, and investigation of cases of toxic exposure and poisoning emergencies. Participants learn in depth about toxicokinetics, toxicodynamics, antidote therapy, environmental hazards, forensic analysis, public health toxicology and emerging innovations in the field. The programme aims to equip fellows with the skills needed to handle complex toxicology cases, to be involved in poison prevention programs, and to be able to lead toxicology services at a clinical, research, regulatory and public health level.
