Scientific Committee Toxicology and Environmental Health Committee
Committee Purpose
Committee objectives:
To promote and disseminate research in environmental health toxicology.
To bring together scientists and enhance collaboration and communication among groups working in the field.
To establish recommendations in the field (bioanalytical validation).
To educate IATDMCT members on advances and opportunities in the area.
Scope of the Committee:
Assessment of human exposure to environmental contaminants through the use human biomonitoring.
Optimization of human biomonitoring targets through the development of biomarkers, bio-analytical methods, toxicokinetics and toxicokinetic modeling (physiologically-based toxicokinetic modeling).
Potential linkage of exposure to environmental contaminants and clinical effects and application to laboratory medicine.
Exposome assessment for health promotion and health risk assessment.
Committee Initiatives & Activities
Support the program for the 2021 conference in Rome with 1 symposium and 1 roundtable.
Contribution to COMPASS.
Finalizing the Guideline on bioanalytical validation in Environmental Toxicology.
Proposal for a joint symposium with Society of Toxicology.
