In our latest Minds Behind VICT3R , we’re catching up with Heinz Schwerdtfeger from Syncwork Ag, who leads the project WP9. Heinz and his team are making sure that the tools developed in VICT3R are properly validated and meet Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) standards − using what’s known as Computer System Validation (CSV).

We’re excited to present the latest edition of Minds Behind VICT3R, featuring Nadège Le Roux (Bristol Myers Squibb) – expert in Regulatory Sciences and Policy and a key contributor to VICT3R’s regulatory strategy. With a strong background in regulatory science, Nadège brings valuable insight into how innovative methods like Virtual Control Groups (VCGs) can be integrated into future safety assessments.

This time, Minds Behind VICT3R puts the focus on Armelle Grevot (Novartis) – veterinary pathologist and leader of WP4 in VICT3R. With 20+ years of experience in toxicologic pathology, Armelle is helping shape the future of safety science by integrating digital histopathology into Virtual Control Groups (VCGs).

For this issue of Minds Behind VICT3R, we had the chance to speak with Guillemette Duchateu-Nguyen (Roche) – an expert biostatistician with extensive experience in preclinical and clinical data analysis. Guillemette played a key role in the core group that developed the first historical control data repository, now the foundation of the VICT3R database.

In this edition of Minds Behind VICT3R, we’re happy to feature  Mathieu Vinken (Vrije Universiteit Brussel) – Partner at VICT3R, and Coordinator of both the ASPIS cluster and the ONTOX project. A huge thank you to Mathieu for sharing his expertise and perspectives with us. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about his role and contributions to our work!

We are thrilled to launch our new interview series, Minds Behind VICT3R, where we spotlight the talented individuals shaping the success of the VICT3R project. In our first edition, we’re excited to feature Claus Stie Kallesøe from grit42! Claus shares his background and sheds light on the pivotal role grit42 plays in advancing the project’s mission to reduce the use of animals in toxicology research.
