ILS achieved this objective by establishing research programs in the environmental and health sciences. ILS couples scientific excellence with efficient management skills to meet client’s requirements in both a responsive and cost effective manner. With a tradition of scientific excellence, ILS plays an important role in exciting areas of research such as the assessment of new and alternative toxicological testing procedures; molecular and genetic assessments; mechanistic studies of cell growth; cancer and cancer chemopreventive evaluations; translational clinical research; environmental and ecological assessments of hazardous sites; and comprehensive bioinformation capabilities.
