Occupational and Environmental Toxicology in the Military Tri-Service Toxicology

摘要

The three military components of Tri- Service Toxicology; the Army, Navy and AirForce, are committed to the two-fold mission of the laboratory: (1) to provide reliable and timely assessments of toxicological issues for the DoD through an integrated approach to human health effects research and (2) to improve the science of toxicology by developing new tools for the qualitative and quantitative prediction of adverse health effects in human populations. The process of programme development is essential in order for Tri-Service Toxicology to continue to improve, grow and better serve its customers and the operational aspects of the DoD. Although Tri-Service Toxicology is itself a relatively new entity, each of the three component services have demonstrated a long history of significant contributions to the field of toxicology Collectively, they will continue that tradition into the future under the auspices of Tri-Service Toxicology.
