Impact/Purpose:
The US-EPA Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure (CCTE) has been generating data and building software applications and web-based chemistry databases for over a decade. To support our efforts to develop new approaches to prioritize chemicals based on potential human health risks, we aggregate and curate data streams of various types to support prediction models. The results of these efforts will be of direct benefit to program and regional offices as well as the greater scientific community.
Description:
The US-EPA Center for Computational Toxicology and Exposure (CCTE) has been generating data and building software applications and web-based chemistry databases for over a decade. To support our efforts to develop new approaches to prioritize chemicals based on potential human health risks, we aggregate and curate data streams of various types to support prediction models. Over the past few years some of the data have been delivered through web-based “dashboards” for public consumption. The CompTox Chemicals Dashboard, is an integrated access point to obtain information associated with ~900,000 chemical substances and providing experimental and predicted data of various types. This includes physicochemical and fate and transport data, bioactivity data, exposure data and integrated literature searches. Real-time predictions and generalized read-across are possible and advanced search capabilities are available to support EPA-related projects including mass spectrometry non-targeted analysis. This presentation will provide a short overview of the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard but transition into discussions about our new proof-of-concept application, the Hazard Comparison Dashboard.
