NAM-demonium

The frantic excitement, uproar and uncertainty created by new approach methodologies or methods (NAM). The NAM term has been publicized in recent high profile publications from global health authorities, such as Food & Drug Administration
“The rapid expansion of new approach methodologies has created a kind of NAM-demonium, with researchers racing to develop and validate new models.”

“Walking through the poster session felt like pure NAM-demonium—organoids, AI models, and microphysiological systems everywhere.”

“Regulators are trying to bring order to the current NAM-demonium in the field of alternative testing strategies.”

“What started as a niche area has turned into full-blown NAM-demonium across toxicology and drug development.”
