Examples of recent and upcoming conferences of significance for exposure assessment include:

NIOSH Occupational Exposure Sampling Strategies Manual Update
November 8 and 9, 2007
Washington Court Hotel, Washington, DC

NIOSH solicits input from its Stakeholders on their needs for information and guidance to be included in a revision of the “Occupational Exposure Sampling Strategies Manual (OESSM)," which is sometimes referred to as "Leidel, Busch and Lynch" or "The NIOSH Yellow Book". This meeting was an excellent opportunity for stakeholders to provide input on the update and help shape the future of occupational exposure assessment.
