Exposure Prioritization (Ex Priori): A Screening-Level High-Throughput Chemical Prioritization Tool

Toxics, 2022
To estimate potential chemical risk, tools are needed to prioritize potential exposures for chemicals with minimal data. Consumer product exposures are a key pathway, and variability in consumer use patterns is an important factor. We designed Ex Priori,

Environmental Exposure and Leptospirosis, Peru

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
Human infection by leptospires has highly variable clinical manifestations, which range from subclinical infection to fulminant disease. We conducted a population-based, cross-sectional seroepidemiologic study in Peru to determine potential relationships of environmental context to human exposure to Leptospira and disease associated with seroconversion.
