Abstract

Neurotoxicology is a specialty that aims to understand and explain the impact of chemicals, xenobiotics and physical conditions on nervous system function throughout the life span. Herein, we point to the need for integration of novel translational bioinformatics and chemo-informatics approaches, such as machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) to the discipline. Specifically, we advance the notion that AI and ML will be helpful in identifying neurotoxic signatures, provide reliable data in predicting neurotoxicity in the context of genetic variability, and improve the understanding of neurotoxic outcomes associated with exposures to mixtures, to name a few.
