Our History
Originally founded by the Society of Toxicology (SOT) as an independent foundation directed by SOT leadership, Toxicology Education Foundation (TEF) became a wholly independent international charity in 2002. In 2025, Toxicology Education Foundation merged with Toxicology Excellence for Risk Assessment (TERA), another non-profit organization.
