characterize mechanisms and processes by which toxic or infectious
hazards reach target human populations, assess the risk from exposure to
those agents, apply means of preventing or controlling adverse effects
of hazards, and communicate effectively with the public and
professionals regarding potential public health impacts and mitigation
strategies.
