Abt is a proud sponsor of the 2024 Society for Toxicology Annual Meeting taking place this March in Salt Lake City, Utah. This event brings together toxicologists from research organizations, federal agencies, academia, and other institutions from across the U.S. to discuss the latest science, technology, and findings that are our world as we know it. Our staff are excited to connect with you!
Presentations
March 11, 2024, 2:15 pm – 4:15 pm MST
POSTER (P854): Development of a Suite of One-Compartment Pharmacokinetic Models for PFAS and Implementation as a Resource for Communities with PFAS-Contaminated Drinking Water
Abt Coauthors: Meghan Lynch and Claire Lay
See associated publication: Community-facing toxicokinetic models to estimate PFAS serum levels based on life history and drinking water exposures
Additional Resources
Bayesian Estimation of Human Population Toxicokinetics of PFOA, PFOS, PFHxS and PFNA from Studies of Contaminated Drinking Water
Abt experts co-authored a study explaining how stakeholders—including individual citizens—can better estimate PFAS blood levels from water concentrations.
Drinking Water Treatability Database Update Tackles PFAS
EPA’s Office of Research and Development needed to expand its online, publicly available Drinking Water Treatability Database (TDB). The goal was to allow the database to better support decision making about emerging contaminants of concern.
Spotlight On: Environmental Toxicology
Our toxicologists design, implement, conduct and manage a wide range of laboratory and field-based bioassays, investigations and other tests to fill key data gaps and increase our understanding of the adverse effects of chemicals, mixtures, and other stressors on numerous organisms, including bacteria, algae, invertebrates, fish, reptiles, birds, and mammals.
PFAS Multi-Site Research Study
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of man-made chemicals that are associated with health detriments. Given the large scope of a planned multi-site study (MSS) and the complexity of the data to be collected, the Agency for Toxic…
Spotlight On: Health & Environment Systematic Review Capabilities
Spotlight On: AI @ Abt
In 40 projects over the last five years, Abt has shown that AI can be transformative, making public services more effective and efficient.
Climate HealthCounts™
Abt’s Climate HealthCounts™ takes readily available data from governments’ existing climate action planning to generate estimates of the public health benefits that result from air quality improvements.
Confidence in New Approach Methodologies for Risk Assessment
Abt is working to advance the science around chemical risk assessment to support confidence in the use of New Assessment Methodologies.
