On April 29–30, 2019, the National Toxicology Program (NTP) of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) will be holding a workshop on employing systems biology and knowledge of cancer pathways to enhance understanding of how environmental chemicals lead to cancer. The workshop, entitled “Converging on Cancer,” will be held in Washington, DC, at the US Environmental Protection Agency’s William Jefferson Clinton East building. Individuals interested in attending the workshop in person must register by April 22, 2019, and those interested in attending via webcast must do so by April 30, 2019. For additional information, consult the workshop web page.

 Additionally, the final day to respond to the Request for Information (RFI): Input on Assays and Approaches for Evaluating Chemical Effects on Cancer Pathways is March 31, 2019. Please see the RFI web page for more information.

SOT is sharing information on this workshop as part of its Memorandum of Understanding with NIEHS to “pursue collaborative efforts such as liaison communications, partnerships, and events that promote best practices associated with common interests and missions.”
