Workshop Overview:
This workshop will provide participants with knowledge and hands-on experience in benchmark dose modeling for chemical risk assessment using the Bayesian Benchmark Dose (BBMD) modeling system. The workshop will cover various topics, including Bayesian benchmark dose modeling for different study types (e.g., toxicological, epidemiological, and genomic studies) and data formats (e.g., dichotomous, continuous data), probabilistic dose-response modeling and low-dose extrapolation, prior elicitation in Bayesian BMD analysis, BMD estimation comparison, BMD estimation using specialty models, and the collaborative features of the BBMD system. The newly developed ToxDT system will be briefly introduced as well.Workshop Information:
