SOFTWARE SURVEY SECTION

The Software Survey Section in thls journal is intended to

encourage the exchange of information on software programs relevant

to toxicology. The number of scientists developing their own

software is on the increase, but the existence of much of this

software remains unknown to many who would benefit greatly from it.

It is important, therefore, that some means of spreading this

information be made available to those who wish to share it with

others.

The questionnaire on the following pages is designed to help

you to report any software that you may have developed, or are in the

process of developing. If you want to share information on your

software, please photocopy the questionnaire, complete it with the

relevant details, and return it to:

Food and Chemical Toxicology,

BIBRA, Woodmansterne Road, Carshalton, Surrey SM5 4DS, England

The contents of the questionnaire will not be reviewed, but will

be published as they are, in order that the exchange of information

should be as rapid as possible. Any comments you have on the

Software Survey Section would be greatly appreciated.
