ISAM is sponsoring the fourth Aerosol Dosimetry Conference on “Inhaled Aerosol Dosimetry: Advances, Applications, and Impacts on Risk Assessments and Therapeutics” that will be held at The Arnold and Mabel Beckman Center of the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering, Irvine, California on October 16-18, 2024. The conference will focus on advancing our understanding of internal doses received from inhaled substances. Abstract deadline has been set to July 5, 2024.

Conference topics to be addressed:

• Developing Dosimetry Data to Support Health-Related Responses
• Continuous Flow In Vitro and In Vivo Methods, Models, Advances, Impacts and Limitations
• Advances in Dosimetry Models Including CFD, MPPD and Physiologic
• Aerosol Dosimetry in Emerging Micro-physiological Simulation Systems of the Lung
• Comparative Mammalian Anatomical and Physiological Information, Including Life-Stage Data
• Deposition, Distribution, and Clearance of Inhaled Soluble and Partially Soluble Aerosols
• Dose Metrics for Adverse Outcomes Pathways
• Doses to Target Tissues, Long-Term Retention and Other Axes
• Delivery and Pharmacokinetics of Inhaled Aerosols and Characterizations of Particles in Tissues
• Complex Aerosol Systems (Mixtures, charge states, shape factors, concentrations, etc.)
• Exhaled Aerosols, Viral and Other Bioaerosols
• Workflows, Data Management Systems, and Reporting Standards
• Methods, Data Handling, New Materials, and AI and Machine Learning Applications
