Workshop series on California’s Toxics Information Clearinghouse: Scientific Approaches to Implementation
[12/15/09]

A workshop series on “California’s Toxics Information Clearinghouse:  Scientific Approaches to Implementation” will be held in March and May of 2010.  The series is being co-sponsored by the UCLA Law and Environmental Health Sustainable Technology Policy Program, the UC Berkeley Center for Green Chemistry, and the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA), with primary funding from the UC Toxic Substances Research and Teaching Program.

Workshop 1 will be on March 15-16 in Sacramento, at the Cal/EPA building (1001 I Street).  This first workshop will focus on indicators for human health hazards in three sessions: 

  • State of the science on identifying chemical hazards
  • Human health hazard indicators for cancer, developmental neurotoxicity and endocrine disruption
  • Moving forward with human health hazard indicators

Workshop 2 will be on May 10-11 at UC Berkeley and will address indicators of exposure potential, ecotoxicity and other environmental effects.

Please save these dates and watch for more details on workshop 1 soon.  If you have any questions, feel free to contact Sara Hoover of OEHHA (shoover@oehha.ca.gov).
