The conference follows the successful conferences on exposure assessment in occupational
epidemiology and hygiene in Woods Hole USA (1988), Leesburg USA (1990), Lyon France
(1994), Gothenburg Sweden (2001) and most recently X2004 in Utrecht, The Netherlands.

During the conference we will address changes in the occupational and general environment that exposure assessors of today have to deal with. In addition to this, the ever-increasing interest in gene-environment interactions, quantitative exposure- response relations and interactions between different exposures such as chemical and biological agents in mixed-exposure environments in the fields of epidemiology, hygiene, toxicology and risk assessment will challenge the capabilities of modern exposure assessors.
