subject: A follow-up on PFAA Days III Symposium
Dear Member of the PFAA Days Community:
we would like to thank you for your enthusiastic support and participation at the recent conference at
EPA' s campus in Research Triangle park' NC. we hope that you found the meeting to be informative'
interesting and productive, and that the experience will help your research and foster future
collaborations. we especially wish to thank all of the session leaders and speakers who provided state -
of -science overviews, and poster presenters who discussed their own research programs and findings.
while the meeting is over, there is still a great deal of work that needs to be done to summarize the
outstanding research that was presented at the conference. we hope that you will join in with the plans
to publish Pp^A Days III -related research in either of the two special focus issues of Reproductive
Toxicology or Environmental science & Technology. As outlined below, these publications have different
emphases and slightly different intentions regarding their PpxA Days special issues' so you should
consider carefully which would be best for your contributions.
The Reproductive Toxicology special edition will consider research related to characterization of ppmA
toxicity' elucidation of their modes and mechanisms of actions' description of pharmacokinetics and
modeling, Pr/m mixture effects' epidemiology, and human health risk analysis. In additinn, we are
seeking a couple of reviews or mini -reviews to summarize issues that are critical to the understanding of
potential human and ecological health risks of the perfluorinated chemicals. All manuscripts will be
subject to the normal peer -review process, with accepted papers being published immediately on-line at
the journal *ebdte. The printed version of this special issue will be available in February or March in
ZOlI. The guest editor of the Reproductive Toxicology special issue will be Chris Lau
(lau.christopherNepa.gnv).
The Environmental science & Technology focus issue is intended to cover full length original research
related to material presented at ppAA Days and any other original manuscripts related to current Pp;A
research. Papers should consider topics that involve fate and transport, reactivity' water and
wastewater treatment' risk and exposure assessment in the environmental media' ecological toxicity'
epidemiology, human and environmental health. The overall intention is to select approximately 25
publications that summarize the current state of global ppAA research as well as the most promising new
developments in this field. manuscripts for this special focus issue can be submitted to ss&T through
the ACs Paragon plus Environment website (https://acs.manuscriptcentral.cum/acs)' by selecting
Environmental science & Technology and indicating that you want to submit for the perfluoroalkyl Arid
special edition. manuscripts will be subject to normal peer -review by the journal, with accepted
material being published immediately as an Asxp article. The actual bound version of this special edition
will be published no later than October 201I. The guest editors {mark strynar ([e-mail]),
Andy Lindstrom (lindstrum.andrewNepa.gov)' and Laurence Libelo (libelo.laurence0epa.guv)) will be working
with the managing editor to select manuscripts for this special issue.
while the research presented at the PpAA Days zzz symposium is our primary target for publication in
these two special issues, it must be emphasized that other works related to prxxs that are conducted by
investigators who did not attend our meeting are also welcome. In that regard, please help us to draw
attention from your colleagues to these special issues.
We also want to remind you that your comments about the conference are always welcome' with suggestions
on how to improve future pFAx Days meetings being very important to us. Please send any feedback you may
have directly to Chris Lau (lau.christopherNepa.gov).
