Company History
HESI was established in 1989 as a global branch of the International Life Sciences Institute (ILSI) (www.ilsi.org) to provide an international forum to advance the understanding of scientific issues related to human health, toxicology, risk assessment, and the environment. In 2002, HESI was recognized by the United States government as a publicly supported, tax-exempt organization, independently chartered from ILSI.
