Title: Toxicological Profile for Chlorobenzene
Subject of Planned Report: The ATSDR toxicological profile reviews the toxicologic, epidemiologic, and adverse health effects for the substance being described. It also summarizes environmental fate and transport mechanisms and the potential for human exposure.
Purpose of Planned Report: The purpose of the toxicological profile is to provide a source of toxicological and epidemiological data. Data on these hazardous substances supports public health assessment efforts.

Experience:
Dr. Lisa M. Kamendulis is Core Director, Oxidative Stress and Environmental Analysis Core at Indiana University Department of Environmental Health. After completing her undergraduate degree in Biology from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Dr. Kamendulis received her Ph.D. Toxicology from the University of New Mexico in 1994. There, she studied mechanisms of hepatotoxicity, specifically focusing on the induction of apoptosis. Her research focused on examining mechanisms by which environmental agents and therapeutic drugs elicit liver cancer, both in vivo and in vitro rodent models. She then examined the role of oxidative stress in modulating growth regulatory signaling networks and gene expression elicited by nongenotoxic carcinogens. She has published over 60 peer-reviewed manuscripts, and book chapters in the areas of Toxicology and chemical carcinogenesis.

Experience:
Bridge the gap between experimental scientists and statistical researchers by representing the causal mechanisms that are likely to lead to biological damage of policy interest. The principal foci of his past work are the use of various biomarkers and physiologically-based pharmacokinetic models to:
- Improve risk assessment for carcinogens.
- Quantitative treatment of inter-individual variability in susceptibility for a wide variety of non-cancer effects.
- The use of Monte Carlo simulations to represent the combined effects of multiple sources of uncertainty and variability.
