COSMOS - a European Union project developing methods for determining the safety of cosmetic ingredients for humans, without the use of animals, using computational models. COSMOS was one of seven projects forming the SEURAT-1. The project ran from January 2011 - December 2015. Major results and links to the legacy tools are availabe from this website.

Cellular behavior and cell fate decisions are the result of the coordinated activation and deactivation of multiple signaling pathways. Following genomic sequencing - one of the challenges Systems Biologists are now facing - is to quantitatively understand the complex interactions which cause the purposeful behavior of mammalian cells through mathematical modeling. The collaboration of life scientists, mathematicians, physicists, chemists, engineers and computer scientists.
