12 September 2013 CHE Partnership call: Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals: Exposure, Research and Regulation.

This call jointly hosted by CHE and The Endocrine Disruption Exchange (TEDX), featured Dr. Jerrold Heindel, Scientific Program Administrator at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, presenting an overview of an historically important meeting in Berlin that brought toxicologists and endocrinologists together in September 2012, to begin the mapping of such an incorporation. Dr. Laura Vandenberg, Assistant Professor, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, School of Public Health, then discussed non-monotonic dose response, one of the possible effects of EDCs that can be overlooked in traditional toxicological risk assessment, and Gwynne Lyons, Director, CHEM Trust, described the current European Union negotiations concerning EDC regulation.
