This book is authored by leading international investigators who have real-world experience in relating computational toxicology methods to risk assessment.
As in many fields of scientific endeavor, computational toxicology represents a broad and expanding group of activities.
This book is intended to be an introduction to various applications of computational toxicology and to show how these approaches are currently being used effectively for risk assessment purposes in the near term.
The focus of the chapter is on the development and application of computational toxicology methods to human risk assessment.
Current advances in genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics are widely anticipated to translate in the future to a constellation of benefits in human health.
Written by pioneers in the field, this book is an essential reference for researchers, students and technicians in toxicology and risk assessment.
