Society of Toxicology Workshop
Building for Better Decisions: Multi-Scale Integration of Human Health and Environmental Data, May 8–11, 2012. Protecting human health and the environment from chemicals or other environmental stressors involves analysis, translation, and integration of information from sources to transport, including characterization of exposure and effect pathways. Scientists now need more than ever the ability to integrate data at different scales of impact, and for the output from computational tools in one discipline (e.g., exposure modeling) of the exposure-dose-response continuum to serve as input to modeling tools in another (e.g., dose-response analysis). The need for integrating and managing large amounts of data in a rigorous and transparent fashion is not unique to a particular discipline. This international conference will provide a unique opportunity to convene scientists from different sectors (government, industry, academia), across the exposure-dose-response continuum for both ecological and health endpoints, and from other communities (e.g., clinical/biomedical informatics, defense, intelligence) to discuss data interoperability, data integration, data management and model interface needs with software developers, software engineers, database architects and administrators, and data analysts. Specific issues to be discussed: Best practices for each major discipline; Data access, integration, management and computational modeling needs to advance each discipline; Ensuring transparency and data integrity; Recommendations for data and model interoperability standards. https://www.toxicology.org/ai/meet/cct_b4bd.asp
