International Workshop on Uncertainty and Variability in Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Models: October 31 - November 2, 2006

Risk assessments for chemicals increasingly utilize pharmacokinetic models, particularly physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models. Characterizing the uncertainty in PBPK model parameterization and estimation of dose metrics for use in risk assessment is essential. In addition, human variability is an important factor to be characterized to appropriately describe human populations. View the Web site for links to PDF versions of many of the presentations.
