Conducting Comprehensive Toxicological Assessments
|
Research Initiative
|
FDA
|
NIEHS
|
The purpose of this Agreement is to conduct, at FDA/NCTR, comprehensive toxicological assessments on FDA priority chemicals/agents nominated to the National Toxicology Program. Studies can include range finding sub-chronic and chronic, compound-specific mechanistic studies, and consideration of the use of alternate test systems. This combination of studies is designed to facilitate the interpretation of study results in support of comprehensive quantitative human health risk assessments. The primary goal of this program is to develop a comprehensive scientific data base that can be utilized to reduce the uncertainty in risk assessment/risk benefit analysis for specific chemicals with high FDA impact.

CONNECT continues to expand and grow in line with the CONNECT Community''s needs and in conjunction with the developments of the Nationwide Health Information Network. To support building out secure and easy-to-implement health information exchange among physicians, patients (personal health record), labs and pharmacies, the CONNECT program created the Electronic Health Record Interoperability Special Interest Group (EHRI SIG). The EHRI SIG was formed to ensure the interoperability requirements for EHR and related solutions are successfully incorporated into CONNECT as it continues to evolve to focus on the end-user experience. Members of the EHRI SIG will work together to achieve interoperability of EHR systems in line with Nationwide Health Information Network standards and specifications using the CONNECT solution. The Director of the NLM Lister Hill National Center for Biomedical Communications serves on the EHRI SIG.
