The analytical challenges associated with identifying extent of exposure based on data obtained from human samples, especially challenges presented by the differences in physiological makeup of individuals, specimen collection and pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic factors. The extent to which the applicant clearly states planning goals and objectives which are consistent with the Purpose and Program Requirements sections as presented in this announcement, and the degree to which the goals and objectives reflect an understanding of the need to reach beyond the laboratory to achieve balanced input from the broader public health community in preparing the biomonitoring plan. Describe in detail how the biomonitoring plan will be developed, what sources of information and expertise will be utilized in establishing the plan.
