Traditional chemical screening and toxicity testing have focused on specific, individual chemicals, carefully analyzing the potential health and environmental risks from exposure to a single chemical at a time. However, the number of chemicals currently in commerce number in the tens of thousands, outpacing the rate of testing. Compounding this, real-world exposures are likely to include multiple chemicals that can compound or mitigate health and other effects. To learn more about these issues, tune in on Wednesday, September 20, 2017, from 12:30 PM to 2:00 PM online by registering here.
