Workshop Re-Cap: Event Overview
)
- U.S EPA Workshop on Research Needs for Community-Based Risk Assessments
Thursday, October 18 - Friday, October 19, 2007
The National Center for Environmental Research (NCER) and National Center for Computational Toxicology (NCCT) sponsored this workshop to bring together environmental and public health scientists to foster discussion in the area CBRA. Specifically, scientists presented the tools, methods, models, and approaches currently used for community-based risk assessment and identified research needs for this emerging discipline.
Given the importance of this new area, NCER plans to incorporate it into its extramural research program. Conclusions drawn from this workshop will guide NCER by identifying the research that will improve community-based risk assessment. Attendees included environmental and public health scientists, risk assessors, and community advocates. This meeting was open to the public.
