Workshop: Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon
Toxicity Summit, was held on August 15 - 16, 2006 in
Seattle, WA. The objective of the Summit was to bring the Toxicity
Working Group members and Center-funded PIs together to discuss
strategies for transforming research results into operations
and to identify people or teams to implement the strategies.
Issues such as methods for modeling PAHs, appropriate exposure
and analytical methods, and multiple mechanisms of toxicity
associated with PAHs were examined. |
