Abstract
ATSDR and RIVM organized an Expert Panel Workshop on the Differences Between Children and Adults and Their Relevance to Risk Assessment. The workshop was held in June 2003, in Brussels, Belgium. The purpose of the workshop was to identify data gaps in current scientific knowledge related to children's health and to recognize areas of mutual interest that would serve as the basis for upcoming ATSDR/RIVM cooperative projects. The aim for both agencies is a better understanding of the issues related to children's health, and the improvement of scientifically based (chemical) risk assessment in children. Topics discussed included clinical trials/toxicity studies, testing in juvenile animals, PBPK modeling in children, and children's risk assessment.
