Abstract
Neurobehavioral methods are increasingly used in research to evaluate the effects derived from exposure to neurotoxic agents in occupational settings, in the community and in children. Results from these studies are being used for risk assessment procedures by regulatory agencies. The aim of this presentation is to illustrate the current trends and future challenges that have to be addressed in order to facilitate the future development of this discipline.
