Subcommittee for the Review of the
Risk Assessment of Methyl Bromide
CHARLES H. HOBBS (Chair) is director of the Toxicology Division at the
Lovelace Respiratory Research Institute. He received his D.V.M. from Colo-
rado State University. His research focuses on the Tong-te~ biological ef-
fects of inhaled materials and the mechanisms by which they act. He is a
diplomate of the American Board of Toxicology and certified in general toxi-
cology. Dr. Hobbs serves as a member of the Committee on Toxicology and
previously served on the Committee on Toxicological and Performance As-
pects of Oxygenated fuels.
JANICE E. CHAMBERS is professor and director of the Center for Envi-
ronmental Health Sciences in the College of Veterinary Medicine at Missis-
sippi State University. She received her Ph.D. in animal physiology from
Mississippi State University. Her research focuses on neurotoxicology of in-
secticides including neurochemical and behavior studies and insecticide me-
tabolism. She is a diplomate of the American Board of Toxicology. Dr.
Chambers previously served as a member of the NRC's Pane] on Life Sci-
ences for postdoctoral fellowships.

his D.V.M. from Washington State University. Dr. Dost's research interests
include the estimation of environmental and occupational chemical exposure
and risk assessment and the metabolic fate of toxicants. Previously, Dr. Dost
served on the NBC committee on toxicology of hydrazines.
DALE B. HATTIS is research professor in the Center for Technology, Envi-
ronment, and Development at Clark University. He received his Ph.D. in ge-
netics from Stanford University. His research focuses on the development
and application of methodologies to assess the health impacts of regulatory
options with an emphasis on incorporating interindividual variability data into
risk assessments for both cancer and non-cancer endpoints. Previously, Dr.
Hattis was a member ofthe NAS/IOM Committee on Evaluation ofthe Safety
of Fishery Products and the NRC Committee on Neurotoxicology and Risk
Assessment.
MATTHEW C. KETFER is co-director of the Pacific Northwest Agricultural
Safety and Health Center and director of the occupational medicine program
at the University of Washington. He received his M.D. from the University of
TIlinois and his M.P.H. from the University of Washington. Dr. Keifer's re-
search interests focus on the health of agricultural workers with specific focus
on the health effects of occupational pesticide exposure. He is a diplomate of

and Environmental Health at the University of California at Irvine. She re-
ceived her M.D. and Ph.D. from Northwestern University and her M.P.H.
from the University of Washington. Dr. Luderer's research focuses on repro-
ductive effects and neuroendocrine alterations as a result of exposure to envi-
ronmental toxicants, particularly volatile organics. She is a diplomate of the
American Board of Internal Medicine.
GLENN C. MILLER is director of the Center for Environmental Sciences
and Engineering at the University of Nevada, Reno. He received his Ph.D. in
Agricultural Chemistry from the University of California at Davis. Dr.
Miller's research focuses on the fate and transport of airborne pesticides fol-
Towing major uses and the effects of deposited residues on soils including
their photodegradation.
