Toxicology routines for analyzing dose-response data include dose-response analysis
and trend tests. Dose-Response methods are based upon the US EPA's benchmark dose software 3.  Methods have
been extended to include additional functionality based on World Health Organization
guidelines.  It further supports the European Food Safety Authority's
draft guidance on model averaging. The dose-response methods and datasets used in this package are
described in Wheeler et al. (2019) <doi:10.1111/risa.13218>, Wheeler et al. (2020) <doi:10.1111/risa.13537>,
and Wheeler et al. (2022) <doi:10.1002/env.2728>.  NTP routines are described in
Bailer and Portier (1988) <doi:10.2307/2531856>, Bieler and Williams (1993) <doi:10.2307/2532200>,
Williams (1971) <doi:10.2307/2528930>, and Shirley (1977) <doi:10.2307/2529789>.
