Title of Collaborative Activity:

Administration of Comprehensive Assessment of Occupationally-Relevant Exposures

Description of Collaborative Activity:

This task order provides financial support to the National Institute for Occupations Safety and Health (NIOSH) personnel to travel to, attend, and participate in several National Toxicology Programs (NTP) meetings held in Research Triangle Park, NC and Washington, DC. These included Interagency Committee for Chemical Evaluation and Coordination meetings, NTP Technical Report meetings, NTP Board of Scientific Counselors meetings, Report on Carcinogen meetings, NTP Executive Committee Meetings, and ad hoc meetings addressing specific NTP issues. All of these meetings were aimed at investigating, defining, or reporting hazards associated exposure to environmental chemicals. Many of the exposures are occupational and NIOSH personnel provide expert opinion on chemical exposures linked to cancer, respiratory disease, development and reproductive disorders, neurotoxicity, and immunological toxicity.
