Trainees In Action

Training the future generation of toxicologists in novel scientific discoveries should go hand-in-hand with ensuring that trainees develop a broad set of complementary competencies that span multiple disciplines from basic biology to exposure science, biostatistics, and epidemiology. Trainees must also understand how these data and knowledge are translated into decisions and policy.
