SUMMARY:EDCs & Female Reproductive Health: A growing health concern
DESCRIPTION:In this EDC Strategies Partnership webinar\, Dr. Anne-Simone Parent\, a researcher from the MERLON project\, will present the findings from their recent review paper\, “Endocrine-disrupting chemicals and female reproductive health: A growing concern.“ This highlights how EDCs impact the development of female reproductive disorders and the challenges behind proving the causality between exposure and human disease manifestation.  The female reproductive disorders include abnormal puberty\, impaired fertility\, premature menopause or polycystic ovarian syndrome. The webinar will be moderated by Génon Jensen\, Executive Director\, Health and Environment Alliance (HEAL). \nAbout MERLON: The MERLON project – an EU funded research initiative\, brings together world-leading experts from 12 partner institutions across Europe to develop and improve tools to better identify and ultimately regulate harmful endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs). It focuses on associations between exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals and the impaired sexual development and reproductive functions in humans. It also works on the transition to  applying new approach methodologies (NAMs)\, a new paradigm of chemical testing that aims to reduce our reliance on animals for toxicity testing.
