Project Summary/Abstract This proposal is to request funding to help support the Tenth International PCB Workshop, entitled “Fifty Years of PCB Research, New Approaches and Discoveries and still so much more to learn” to be held in Krakow, Poland, August 27-31, 2018. Despite active research spanning five decades, extensive regulatory actions, and an effective ban on their production since the 1970s, PCBs still persist in the environment and remain a critical public health problem. A primary objective of the International PCB Workshops is to provide a single forum for the world experts on issues of analysis, fate and transport, exposure assessment, metabolism and disposition, toxicity, and public health policy of PCBs- a unique opportunity for scientists to come together and learn from each other. The specific aims of this workshop are to: (1) attract and bring together the most talented and experienced experts on PCBs in the world, (2) to present to scientists and lay persons the very latest information on this complex topic in a way that will be coherent and understandable to all present, (3) to compile and publish the most authoritative treatise containing the newest information on the topic, in a journal available to a broad audience, and to (4) supplement and enhance the training of graduate and postdoctoral students and early career scientists. This Workshop will include presentations on international agreements on reduction of PCB exposure, evolving approaches to assessing exposures and health risks from environmental chemical mixtures, novel studies on PCB toxicity and mechanisms of action, and reducing PCB exposure: recent actions, their scientific basis, and new initiatives. New results will be shared regarding PCB toxicity and mechanisms of action, new digital tools will be presented, and new risk assessment methods and tools will be shared. Researchers will be introduced to new colleagues, new information, and new research directions. A proceedings document with all sessions and abstracts will be published as a special issue in a major environmental health journal.

项目摘要/摘要 这项提案是为了申请资金，以帮助支持第十届国际印刷电路板研讨会， 题为《印刷电路板研究五十年，新方法和发现以及更多》 学习“将于2018年8月27日至31日在波兰克拉科夫举行。尽管活跃的研究跨越了 五十年来，广泛的监管行动，以及自 20世纪70年代以来，多氯联苯仍然存在于环境中，仍然是一个严重的公共卫生问题。一个 国际印刷电路板研讨会的主要目标是为世界提供一个单一的论坛 关于分析、命运和运输、暴露评估、新陈代谢和 多氯联苯的处置、毒性和公共卫生政策-对科学家来说是一个独特的机会 走到一起，相互学习。这次研讨会的具体目的是：(1)吸引 并汇聚世界上最有才华和最有经验的多氯联苯专家，(2) 以某种方式向科学家和外行人介绍关于这个复杂主题的最新信息 这将是连贯的和在场的所有人都能理解的，(3)汇编和出版最多的 权威论文，包含关于这一主题的最新信息，发表在可供 (4)补充和加强研究生和博士后的培养 学生和早期职业科学家。研讨会将包括关于国际问题的演讲 关于减少多氯联苯暴露的协议、评估暴露的不断演变的方法和 环境化学混合物的健康风险，多氯联苯毒性和 作用机制和减少多氯联苯暴露：最新行动、其科学基础和 新举措。将分享关于多氯联苯毒性和作用机制的新结果， 将展示新的数字工具，并分享新的风险评估方法和工具。 研究人员将被介绍给新同事、新信息和新研究 方向。一份包含所有会议和摘要的议事程序文件将作为 在一家主要的环境健康杂志上刊登了一期特刊。
