Much of the work carried out by DTT is in support of the National Toxicology Program (NTP), an interagency partnership of the Food and Drug Administration, National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, and NIEHS.

Toxicoinformatics Group

Jui-Hua Hsieh, Ph.D., is a Staff Scientist in the Predictive Toxicology Branch of the Division of Translational Toxicology (DTT). Her primary roles involve method development and applications on concentration-response data, web application development for data visualization, and model development for prioritizing and predicting potential human toxicants.

Prior to joining the DTT in 2011, she received her B.S. degree in Pharmacy from National Taiwan University and her Ph.D. degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Her Ph.D. work involves the development and application of cheminformatics tools for drug discovery projects, particularly hit identification in virtual screening.
