> Doubletree Hotel, l750 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD, September 22-24,
> 1999
>
> Overview
> Knowledge of human exposures to agents of potential public health
> concern is critical for a successful and scientifically sound approach
> to the evaluation of human health risks resulting from environmental
> and occupational exposures. This workshop will focus on the exposure-
> dose-response-disease paradigm and will describe current opportunities
> and challenges in exposure assessment research, provide usable
> information on disease-specific chemical exposures that will enhance
> integration of exposure assessment with epidemiology and toxicology
> studies, and highlight approaches for further research and the
> development of effective prevention and intervention strategies. The
> two and one-half day workshop is structured so that most of the time
> will be spent in organized breakout sessions on the state of the
> science and case studies that will gain focus from the plenary
> sessions. A Workshop Proceedings Report summarizing the workshop and
> sessions, and report/recommendations from the breakout groups is
> planned.
