Impact/Purpose:
The webinar focused on ways that ToxCast high throughput screening data and the adverse outcome pathway framework, under development in the CSS program, can be used to prioritize environmental contaminants for monitoring and management. The work presented focused on case studies conducted in Region 8, in collaboration with EPA Region 8 and NEIC, as well as other federal (USGS, US FWS) and regional partners (Northern Colorado Plateau Network). The Consortium for Research and Education on Emerging Contaminants (CREEC) is a grass-roots 501(c)(3) non-profit organization comprised of world-class scientists and stakeholders with a shared interest in the source, fate, and physiological effects of contaminants of emerging concern (www.creec.net). As such, they represent an important group of stakeholders with an interest in applying the data, approaches, and tools that are being developed by the CSS program.
