This workshop is a follow-up of the "Tools for Prioritizing Food Safety Concerns" workshop held in June 2007. The 2007 Workshop focused on criteria and tools for making rapid, cost-effective decisions about unwanted chemical and microbial agents found in food in order to allocate scarce resources such that the greatest public health benefits is achieved. One of the areas recommended for more in-depth consideration by the 2007 Workshop participants was exposure assessment and the current Workshop are being convened to address that area.
