Your Foundation at Work
Research
Foundation-supported research including collaborative funding projects, has led to many advancements in medical toxicology and publications in national and international research journals.
Education
Each year the MTF provides multiple opportunities for medical toxicologists to further their education and training through travel awards to ACMT’s Annual Scientific Meeting, a fellowship rotation in industry program, and other opportunities.
Patient Care
Medication overdose or adverse drug reactions, chemical exposures, environmental toxins, envenomation, chemical warfare agents and occupational hazards are just some of the ways you, your child, or someone you care about can be poisoned. Patient access to this unique medical specialty saves lives every day.
The Impact of Your Gifts
-
Checking in with Peter Chai, MD, MMS, FACMT
"The MTF grant was my first funded grant that really allowed me to learn about the research process and gain mentorship with faculty from my fellowship program. In the vein of my current work that develops different types of technologies around substance use disorder, the MTF grant gave me experience to allow me to start to apply for NIH funding." -
Catching Up with Peter Akpunonu, MD
"What was a big takeaway for me was how diverse the professional opportunities are in toxicology...I learned that there were outpatient opportunities, addiction, industry consultation, and medicolegal consultation just to name a few." -
Impact Story: David Jang, MD, MSc, FACMT
"I strongly support the vision and commitment of ACMT and MTF to support early-stage investigators like me. The MTF award played an instrumental role in making it possible for our research to move forward, leading to additional funding to further this important work."

Future Fund
Building for the Future; Saving Lives Today
Improving patient care is our vision for the future. Ensuring that every patient who requires the specialty care of a medical toxicologist has that care; ensuring that every drug in development is safe for patients; and ensuring that our environment is safe; this is the vision for our future!
Making a gift to the MTF's Future Fund will help to create both growth and sustainability for the programs of the MTF to advance this mission.
