Toxicologists conduct risk assessments to determine the likelihood and severity of adverse health effects resulting from exposure to toxic substances. This involves evaluating exposure pathways, estimating exposure levels, and assessing the toxicity of the substances. Risk assessments provide valuable information for policymakers and public health officials to make informed decisions about regulations, exposure limits, and public health interventions.
