Peer-Reviewed
Publications

Open access, peer-reviewed publications ensure that knowledge is a public good. HESI believes that accessible research is critical for equitable engagement, diverse collaboration, and increased interdisciplinary conversation. We strive to achieve open access on all publications, and more than 200 publications from HESI programs have been published in the last decade.

A comparison of the lowest effective concentration in culture media for detection of chromosomal damage in vitro and in blood or plasma for detection of micronuclei in vivo

It is often assumed that genotoxic substances will be detected more easily by using in vitro rather than in vivo genotoxicity tests since higher concentrations, more cytotoxicity and static exposures can be achieved. However, there is a paucity of data demonstrating whether genotoxic substances are detected at lower ...

Considerations towards the better integration of epidemiology into quantitative risk assessment

This paper summarizes five key ideas that emerged from multi-sectoral and multi-stakeholder activities of HESI's Environmental Epidemiology for Risk Assessment Committee that could help improve how human data inform quantitative health risk assessment and decision making. It highlights the needs for concerted efforts from ...
