| This session describes the emerging research areas of biomonitoring and toxicogenomics. After giving an overview of both of these disciplines sucesses and challenges in the implementation of these research areas will be described. Links between chemical exposures and two genetically mediated diseases, Parkinson's disease and Autism, will provide examples of the types of research being done in these two emerging disciplines. | |||
| Learning Objectives: At the end of this session participants will be able to: 1) Recognize the importance of biomonitoring in the evaluation of environmental exposures and potential health outcomes. 2) Describe the social and ethical implications of toxicogenomic research as well as the efforts to engage diverse segments of U.S. society in shaping the research agenda of the scientific community 3) Describe current research connecting chemical exposures to incidence, morbidity and mortality associated with Parkinson's disease and Autism | |||
