- Abstract
- Despite the short time since the last UJNR meeting, significant progress has occurred in the principal research directions discussed then. These include generating the framework in which smoke toxicity measurements should be evaluated, developing the appropriate measurements to make, and reducing the dependence on animal testing for that purpose.
