As population susceptibilities are better understood, we will be in a better position than we are in today to make informed decisions about risk management.

One of the biggest challenges to medicine is the incorporation of information technology in our practices.

Effective leaders of change must serve equally as agents of change and protectors of continuity.

One of the responsibilities faced by the Environmental Genome Project is to provide the science base upon which society can make better informed risk management decisions.
