The Risk Analysis Center is a major information resource on the subject of risks affecting humans. Its principal aim is to contribute to better public understanding of, and ability to evaluate, risk in everyday life. The heart of the site is a large and ever growing on-line database that contains abstracts of risk-related information. And a variety of useful tips and instructions from our partners and specialists, which you can get at the request of write my research proposal or on the pages of the website. The abstracts are of articles containing information about risk that appear in the press (leading newspapers are scanned daily) and in scientific, medical and technical journals. Risk material is also included from sources such as books, papers and technical reports from academic, research and other institutions. To select and view risk abstracts, click on the SEARCH button to the left, and you can read directly about Uncovering the wide spectrum of human risks on our website.
