Background Information on NTP Peer 

Review Panels 

NTP panels are technical, scientific 

advisory bodies established on an ‘‘as 

needed’’ basis to provide independent 

scientific peer review and advise the 

NTP on agents of public health concern, 

new/revised toxicological test methods, 

or other issues. Previously, a 

subcommittee of the NTP Board of 

Scientific Counselors provided peer 

review of draft NTP Technical Reports. 

The subcommittee has been 

discontinued and peer review of the 

draft reports will now be conducted by 

peer review panels. These panels help 

ensure transparent, unbiased, and 

scientifically rigorous input to the 

program for its use in making credible 

decisions about human hazard, setting 

research and testing priorities, and 

providing information to regulatory 

agencies about alternative methods for 

toxicity screening. The NTP welcomes 

nominations of scientific experts for 

upcoming panels. Scientists interested 

in serving on an NTP panel should 

provide a current curriculum vita to Dr. 

Lori White (see ADDRESSES). The 

authority for NTP panels is provided by 

42 U.S.C. 217a; section 222 of the Public 

Health Service (PHS) Act, as amended.
