NUMTECH, as member of the SFSE, participates in meetings on various topics related to the methodology of the assessment of the health risks.
The SFSE is a not-for-profit association under the French law of 1901, created in 2008 by researchers and professionals involved in the field of health-environment.
It contains a number of different sections and notably the section « Methodology of the assessment of the health risks » in which NUMTECH participates. This section aims to encourage exchanges between members, outside of an institutional context and contribute to improve the usefulness and practices of the assessment of the health risks.
The section is focused on medium-term improvements related to the creation of a consensus of practitioners of assessment of the health risks. Within this framework, the section draws up each year a situation report of knowledge and makes recommendations on various topics related to the methodology of the assessment of the health risks. Thus, after having worked in 2014 on chemical mixtures and in 2015 on the specificities of children (exposure and vulnerabilities), the section is focused on exposures to chemical pollutants through skin contact in 2016.
