Approaches Models and Tools for Characterizing Exposure and Hazard
The course will introduce students to the most commonly applied approaches, predictive models, and computational tools to characterize chemical exposure and hazard. Particular emphasis will be placed on understanding of uncertainties and limitations of models, as well as the process for selecting models of an adequate level of complexity for the task at hand.
