Panel Discission Review: Session 4 -- Assessing Biological Plausibility Of Epidemiological Findings In Air Pollution Research

Results of the final session at the US EPA-sponsored wrokshop on Interpretation of Epidemiologic Studies of Multipollutant Exposure and Health Effects.

Impact/Purpose

This panel primarily focused on controlled exposure studies and provides some guidance to future evaluations of the biological plausibility of the epidemiological reports on criteria pollutants. It is intended to stimulate thinking without drawing any definitive conclusions.
