GeoTox open-source R software package for characterizing the risk of perturbing molecular targets involved in adverse human health outcomes based on exposure to spatially-referenced stressor mixtures via the GeoTox framework - otherwise known as source-to-outcome-continuum modeling. The package, methods, and case-studies are described in Messier, Reif, and Marvel, 2024, medRxiv-Preprint.

The GeoTox framework was first described in Eccles et al. A geospatial modeling approach to quantifying the risk of exposure to environmental chemical mixtures via a common molecular target. Sci Total Environ. 2023 Jan 10;855:158905.

Installation

Development Version

The development version can be installed from GitHub.

Overview

Figure 1 below shows the steps in the source-to-outcome-continuum or GeoTox modeling framework that is capable in the GeoTox package. blue text nodes represent an object and green text, rounded nodes represent a methodology or function required to go from one to the next. The GeoTox package uses R S3 object-oriented programming to create the GeoTox object. The GeoTox object is a list that contains all of the information required to run the analysis including tracking exposure, assays, dose-response, and geospatial referencing.
