Dr. Cote is an Associate Expert at Risk Sciences International, where she brings world-class expertise in environmental health risk assessment, risk management, and science-informed public policy. She contributes to projects that require strategic application of risk methodologies to environmental, occupational, and chemical exposure issues—often at the intersection of regulation, sustainability, and health protection. Her work with RSI benefits from her deep understanding of both U.S. and international regulatory environments and her commitment to advancing decision-making through transparent and defensible science.

Andrew’s focus since retiring from the Canadian federal public service has been to help clients improve digital service delivery by maximizing the use of their data holdings and assisting government regulators in adopting risk-based compliance models derived from data on the individuals or businesses they oversee. This often involves developing risk models and determining how these models can be practically applied in the client’s daily operations.

Dr. Shintaro Hagiwara is a Risk Analyst and Statistician at Risk Sciences International (RSI), where he contributes cutting-edge statistical insight to risk assessments, particularly in chemical safety and public health. Since joining RSI’s technical team in 2018 and transitioning to a full-time role in 2023, he has applied his deep quantitative knowledge to building theoretical foundations and developing statistical software. Notably, he created the database-calibrated assessment process (DCAP) and the enhanced value-of-information (VOI) framework to aid in evidence-based regulatory decision-making, both of which have been reviewed by the Board of Scientific Counselors (BOSC). His applied statistical work provides assessments and tools to derive PODs for chemicals such as inorganic arsenic and fluoride to support both Canadian and international regulatory bodies.

Dr. Paul Price is a Senior Analyst at Risk Sciences International (RSI), bringing over four decades of experience as a pioneer in exposure science and chemical risk assessment. Since joining RSI in 2019, Dr. Price has focused on advancing mixture risk assessment—an increasingly vital area as regulators shift from assessing single chemicals in isolation to understanding the cumulative effects of combined exposures. His current work includes the development of Mixture Adjustment Factors, participation in international regulatory committees, and authorship of scholarly publications aimed at refining the science-policy interface of chemical mixture risk.

Rosanna Wong is a Risk Analyst at Risk Sciences International (RSI), where she supports multidisciplinary projects at the intersection of climate resilience, food systems, and public safety. Since joining RSI in 2021, Rosanna has contributed to a broad range of research areas, including foodborne disease, intentional food adulteration, transportation and natural disaster risks, and climate change adaptation strategies.
