Description:
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as part of its Science to Achieve Results (STAR) program, is seeking applications proposing innovative approaches for measuring the concentrations and activities of endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) in environmental and biological media. The basis of this request for applications is the need to determine how and to what degree human and wildlife populations are exposed to EDCs. Current and previous research is greatly improving our understanding of the effects of EDCs in animals and humans. However, exposure tools are needed in order to measure concentrations and relative activities of EDC mixtures and ultimately to understand the relationships between exposure and adverse effects.
