Training Seminar in Systematic Review
RSI recently conducted an in-house training session in systematic review for its staff. The session featured a keynote presentation by Dr. Katya Tsaioun from Johns Hopkins University, who provided an overview of best practices in systematic review. The training included two systemic applications of systematic review, and current software in systematic review was studied. The…
Read More Workshop facilitation for decision-making under uncertainty
RSI facilitates workshops that guide decision-makers through uncertainty-tolerant processes. The firm uses tested frameworks and participatory tools to elicit preferences, surface assumptions, and document reasoning. RSI ensures outcomes are actionable and resilient to future information updates, strengthening both process integrity and buy-in.
Read More Aggregate exposure
Understanding aggregate exposure has become increasingly important in public health, regulatory policy, and consumer safety. Unlike assessments that focus on a single source of risk, aggregate exposure considers the combined effects of multiple routes and pathways — such as air, water, food, consumer products, and occupational environments — by which individuals may encounter a chemical…
Read More Process mapping
RSI uses process mapping to inform both technical assessments and organizational diagnostics. Whether tracing the flow of regulatory submissions, laboratory testing, or data management, RSI identifies bottlenecks and points of vulnerability. Its visual and narrative outputs support both internal insight and external communication of system dynamics.

Read More Public transport
Public transport systems are critical to economic productivity, urban mobility, and environmental sustainability, but they also present complex safety, health, and operational risks. Accidents, infrastructure failures, overcrowding, and infectious disease transmission all pose potential threats to passenger safety and public trust. Meanwhile, climate change adds further stress, with extreme weather events disrupting services and damaging…

Read More Pathway mapping
RSI uses pathway mapping to support both qualitative and quantitative risk assessments. Whether mapping chemical exposure, behavioral change, or regulatory influence, RSI constructs clear, defensible diagrams and narratives. These help clients visualize risk processes and identify leverage points for mitigation or monitoring.
Read More Workshop facilitation for risk prioritization
RSI facilitates risk prioritization workshops using tools such as risk matrices, MCDA, and facilitated consensus. Its approach balances technical input with participatory deliberation to create shared understanding and buy-in. RSI ensures that prioritization outcomes are documented, traceable, and integrated into planning and resource allocation processes.
Read More Bias Assessment in Case-Control and Cohort Studies for Hazard Identification
IARC recently published a volume on quantitative bias modelling: Bias assessment in case–control and cohort studies for hazard identification (IARC Scientific Publication No. 171). We are pleased to see inclusion of some of the work RSI’s Drs Franco Momoli and Daniel Krewski conducted for the INTERPHONE and MOBI-Kids studies of cell phones, radiofrequencies, and brain…
