Coastal Response Research Center 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. Group Photo
