To examine ongoing issues and concerns in this field, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) drafted a research roadmap, Asbestos Fibers and Other Elongated Mineral Particles: State of the Science and Roadmap for Research, that provides an overview of the state of the science and a plan for future research in areas including toxicology, mineralogy, epidemiology, and exposure assessment. The focus of the proposed research is on clarifying the relationship between human health effects and the physical and chemical characteristics of a wide range of elongate mineral particles. In 2008, NIOSH asked the Institute of Medicine and the National Research Council to form a committee to provide a review of the scientific and technical quality of the January 2009 draft NIOSH Roadmap document. The present volume provides the committee's assessment of the Roadmap and recommendations for strengthening its utility for NIOSH, other federal agencies, the private sector, and other stakeholders"--Publisher's description. 606 $aAsbestos 606 $aInorganic fibers 615 0$aAsbestos. 615 0$aInorganic fibers. 676 $a363.17/91 701 $aNelson$b Alan R$g(Alan Ray)$0197894 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bCommittee for the Review of the NIOSH Research Roadmap on Asbestos Fibers and Other Elongate Mineral Particles. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792441003321 996 $aA review of the NIOSH roadmap for research on asbestos fibers and other elongate mineral particles$93686535 997 $aUNINA
