EFSA Scientific Colloquium N°21: Harmonisation of human and ecological risk assessment of combined exposure to multiple chemicals, Edinburgh (UK)

International experts will gather for an open scientific debate on the harmonisation of human and ecological risk assessment of combined exposure to multiple chemicals (chemical mixtures). Discussions will focus on the following topics of relevance to both human and ecological risk assessment of combined exposure to multiple chemicals: i) mechanistic models for hazard assessment; ii) harmonisation of methods for combined exposure assessment; iii) the use of OMICs and in silico methods for risk assessment; and iv) application of science-based uncertainty factors and approaches for risk characterisation using mechanistic approaches.
