ISEE Workshop: Strategies for Enhancing Peer Review as a Reviewer
Few researchers receive any formal training on how to effectively review and critique a scientific manuscript.
This workshop will provide participants with knowledge, skills, and strategies to maximize the quality and utility of their reviews. Read More
All members of ISEE may benefit from this workshop, however, we anticipate the greatest interest from early-career researchers and members from low- and middle-income countries.

Workshops to Support EPA's Development of Human Health Assessments: 2-Part Series
Public Registration and Call for Posters: The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine will hold a two-part workshop series to support the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s development of chemical human health assessments. Both workshops will take place virtually in May 2022.
In addition to plenary speaker sessions, each workshop will include a poster session with live poster presentations. Submit poster abstracts for consideration by 11:59pm ET on March 28, 2022. The workshop planning committee will select posters for inclusion in the workshops.
Workshop on Triangulation of Evidence in Environmental Epidemiology
The workshop will cover the triangulation of evidence from epidemiologic studies used in human health assessments of environmental agents conducted by the U.S. EPA. In this context, triangulation refers to the practice of integrating results to inform and strengthen causal inferences while reducing bias.
Workshop Dates: May 9th and 11th, 2022
For more information, please visit the triangulation workshop webpage.
