These new approaches are faster, less expensive, and potentially more comparable to real-life human exposures than legacy animal toxicity testing approaches. However, many questions remain about whether--and how--to make the paradigm shift to using these new data streams as the basis for research, policy, and regulatory decisions. Join a workshop on November 20-21, hosted by the Standing Committee on Emerging Science for Environmental Health Decisions, that will bring together scientists, policymakers, risk assessors, and regulators to explore key factors that influence how new science is incorporated into the decision making process. Sierra Club v. EPA 18cv3472 NDCA Tier 12 ED 002061 00040164-00001 Held in Washington DC and webcast, this free, 2-day workshop will draw on expertise from the social sciences on issues such as the type and quantity of data that is "sufficient" for decision making, and trust in decisions influenced by new data streams. Participants will investigate case studies that illustrate examples of how the environmental health community has used these new approaches for decision making.
