Translation of "ECVAM " (English → French) :

For validation studies that are similar to previously validated methods and in respect of which a validation represents a significant competitive advantage, ECVAM should be able to collect charges from those who submit their methods for validation.

the current reorganisation of the JRC Institute for Health and Consumer Protection (IHCP) will make an important contribution to accelerating the on-going efforts to advance alternative methods, including their validation, via ECVAM. This will involve reinforcement of ECVAM's work through support by other IHCP teams. The IHCP is also developing an integrated testing strategy which will leverage the synergies of many complementary activities within the IHCP and allow a more holistic and effective approach to the question of risk assessment, which is central to the regulatory process, thus avoiding unnecessary internal transmission delays. ...[+++] The integrated testing team will, in 2009, consist of about 85 staff members (including the present 62 ECVAM staff members). As part of its contribution to streamlining the process from scientific validation to regulatory acceptance, IHCP will ensure close and consistent follow-up of the regulatory acceptance process both within the Commission and at the level of the OECD;

P. whereas Commission Communication SEC(1991)1794 provides ECVAM only with a relatively weak mandate to validate alternative methods, although ECVAM has delivered highly appreciated and valuable output in recent years,

In particular, he intends to enhance the role of the European Centre for the Validation of Alternative Methods (ECVAM) and to foster the replacement of animal testing with an alternative method if the ECVAM acknowledges its scientific validity.
