Non-Linear Dose-Response Relationships in Biology, Toxicology and Medicine

Abstract

The purpose of the conference was to attract researchers from diverse backgrounds who are working in the common area of non-linear dose-response relationships and to provide a forum to enhance interdisciplinary communication in this area. Outstanding leaders in their respective fields participated in the conference where a variety of important topics were addressed in areas such as pharmacology, toxicology, radiation biology, low-dose modeling, and risk assessment. A poster session was held to promote additional interdisciplinary exchanges and manuscripts have been generated for publication. This unique interdisciplinary conference represents an important step in furthering the understanding of the occurrence, origin, mechanisms, significance and practical applications of non-linear dose-response relationships.
