Additional Information
The NIEHS has moved to a higher level of security awareness. More stringent requirements for access to NIEHS' campus have been implemented. Any individual seeking access to the NIEHS campus to attend a conference/seminar will need to be prepared to show two forms of identification, i.e., driver's license plus one of the following: company ID, government ID or university ID and to provide pertinent information about the conference/seminar, i.e., name of the speaker, host of the conference/workshop or title of the conference/workshop. These are difficult times and the NIEHS is attempting to make everyone's visit to our campus a safe one. Thank you for your cooperation.
