Projet

New Approach Methods in Regulatory Science
Paris is a postdoctoral researcher conducting research on the organizing of ecological chemical risks and ecological risk governance, with a particular focus on documenting and theorizing transnational standardization processes. Paris employs ‘Engaged Innovation Research’ methodology to assess the domains of applicability for omics-based New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) in the chemical risk assessment activities of regulators such as Environment and Climate Change Canada’s Science and Technology Branch (ECCC-STB). Her work has a general focus on understanding the standardization and institutionalization of new practices in regulatory science based on emerging technologies. Paris is a former regulatory scientist and a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA). Publications can be found here: https://orcid.org/0009-0003-9564-764X
