Neuroendocrine disruptors and brain development: Lessons from PCBs

Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are acutely toxic at high concentrations. At lower concentrations they are endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs), with multiple effects on human health. In this webinar, Dr. Tom Zoeller will discuss how the endocrine disrupting effects of PCBs can affect human brain development. Lessons from PCBs can also help us to understand the effects of other EDCs on the developing brain and nervous system.
