The next webinar in the HESI Environmental Epidemiology Committee webinar series, "Causal Reasoning in Epidemiology: Philosophy and Logic", was presented by Dr. George Maldonado ...
The committee’s mission is to engage the epidemiology, exposure, and regulatory communities in discussing what risk assessors need from epidemiology studies to make informed decisions; discuss incentives and barriers to making epidemiology studies better adapted to risk assessment; and develop areas of consensus between risk assessors and epidemiologists, as well as identify a path forward to realize the full potential of epidemiology data in risk assessment.
This group aimed to (1) explore funding mechanisms to better understand funders’ priorities when funding research and (2) obtain insight from funding agencies on what might be needed to increase the impact of epidemiological research on human health risk assessment.

The HESI Environmental Risk Assessment Committee has just published a new study in Global Epidemiology, investigating risk assessors’ perception of the utility of epidemiology in human health risk assessments.
Global Epidemiology, 2021
Throughout history, environmental epidemiology has proven crucial to identify certain threats to human health and to provide a basis for the development of life-saving public health policies. However, epidemiologists are facing challenges when studying tenuous threats such as environmental exposure to chemicals, whose ...
