Toxicology is the study of the adverse effects of chemical substances on living organisms, including humans.  Toxicologists investigate the mechanisms of toxic effects, evaluate the risks and benefits of chemical exposures, and develop strategies to minimize harmful effects.  There are two categories of toxicologists: medical (MD) toxicologists and PhD toxicologists.  They share some common areas of expertise, but there are significant differences in their training, responsibilities and career paths.
