About the Journal
Editor-in-Chief: Lawrence J. Marnett
Chemical Research in Toxicology provides an international
venue for the publication of structural, mechanistic, and
technological advances in research related to the toxic effects
of chemical agents. In 2008, CRT embarks on a new decade with an
expanded scope, new features, and an active outreach to the
global community.

Toxicology - A Global Perspective
The field of toxicology is rapidly changing, and challenges vary around the
world. CRT has invited toxicologists from across the globe to offer their
views of the field of toxicology in their own countries. This month
Giogio Minotti and Paolo Preziosi
trace the field of toxicology in Italy, beginning with Emperor Nero!
The Editorial Perspective
April brings the third of our perspective series written by members of CRT's
Editorial Advisory Board.
Phillip Burcham
provides insight into the use of carbonyl scavengers to evaluate and treat oxidative damage.
