Project No 2345 on "Development of computer system for differential diagnosis of
poisonings by organophosphorus substances". Collaborative support to this project
was provided by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (USA). (November 2002-
January 2004)
Project No CSP-22 on " Creation of the RIHTOP communication system" (May - December
2003). The Institute has received a reliable access to the Internet through a leased
line and to international information resources through local area network. The
implementation of the project has provided a means for the Institute to introduce
up-to-date information technologies, including those related to video conferences
translation.
In November 2003, Agreement No. US WS06-03SB72 on conducting a number of meetings
which are cited as "Research Institute of Hygiene, Toxicology and Occupational Pathology
and the Russian-American BioIndustry Initiative, Integrated Toxicology Testing (RABIIT)
Program" was signed. In the frame of BioIndustry Initiative (BII), the US Department
of State has established the RABIIT program with different goals in mind and, particularly,
in response to demand for conducting toxicology testing that leaves a lot to be
desired both in Russia and abroad. Presently, the negotiations between parties concerned
has been completed, with the plan and budget built up for vivarium reconstruction.
The issues that need further consideration together with a sponsoring party, as
well as those concerning the onset of works on vivarium reconstruction are scheduled
to settle in 2005. On completion of this first stage, the Institute will be ready
to offer its contract services on toxicology testing.
Project No. 2733 on " Development of acute exposure guidance levels of hazardous
substances". Collaborator - Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA). Sponsor - ISTC
(November 2004- October 2005)
Project No. 2370 on "Pharmacological correction of thrimethylphosphate- induced
male reproduction function disorders". Collaborator - "Blue Ridge" Toxicological
Center, University of Virginia, USA. Sponsor - ISTC ( May 2004- April 2006).
