The information desk

The information desk will operate very similarly as in the previous 2001-2006 program. Several governmental services and policy making institutions need information on health damaging properties of substances (common ones and also recently developed ones), radiations, environmental factors,… To cope with these needs, the information desk will develop 2 main types of activity: (1) provide answers to precise questions from the authorities using the available large stock of library information and (2) make systematic in depth studies of important environmental health issues including the danger of new chemicals.
