Recommendations for future research on ultraviolet radiation carcinogenesis.
Recommendations for future research on photocarcinogenesis were developed during an international conference on UVR carcinogenesis. Areas covered in the recommendations include research at the molecular biology level, human (especially epidemiologic aspects), physical (including instrumentation), and biologic studies (stressing animal models). The recommendations also propose the establishment of central supply and service sources for photocarcinogenesis research as well as the establishment of interdiscipilinary training programs related to research in photocarcinogenesis.
