| Description: | The National Toxicology Program, the Environmental Protection Agency and authorities worldwide, increasingly embrace the concepts of systematic reviews, meta-analysis, risk-of-bias, and quality assurance. Evidence-based toxicology (EBT) is a rapidly evolving discipline that represents a way to transparently and consistently evaluate scientific evidence, which can then be applied to address critical questions in toxicology. EBT is especially useful in the fields of regulatory toxicology and risk assessment, where numerous studies must be considered, weighed and integrated to support decision-making. Provides students with fundamental knowledge about EBT approaches currently in use (or in development) that integrate and utilize diverse sources of data. These approaches include meta-analysis and systematic reviews, as used in evidence-based medicine. Introduces, explains and expands upon techniques such as risk of bias, QA/QC, good laboratory practice and validation, and the role that these tools and techniques play in assuring maximum confidence in evidence-based approaches. |
