JSSX (The Japanese Society for the Study of Xenobiotics) is a society for researchers of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics. Pharmacokinetics is the study of the disposition of various chemical substances, especially medical drugs, in the body, focusing on their effectiveness and/or toxicity. Our society was founded in 1985, foreseeing the importance of drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics for drug development and proper usage of drugs.
