Check out how other countries are regulating EEDs.

At this upcoming conference and past conferences (see conference history), top scientists, studying endocrine disruption effects on humans and wildlife, meet to share the latest findings. Look over the program for topics and scientists - may be useful in identifying a topic for your project. I have attended two of these conferences and they were excellent and very current.

Interview with Theo Colburn author of Our Stolen Future and one of the discoverers of the phenomenon of endocrine disruption.

A nice history of an ED that although banned since the early 70's is still with us along with its metabolites.

Registry for toxic substances including EEDs.

Provides a basic description of obesogens and how they are thought to work. Good place to start.

Environmental Health Perspectives (EHP) is a monthly journal of peer-reviewed research and news published by the U.S. National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, National Institutes of Health, Department of Health and Human Services. EHP's mission is to serve as a forum for the discussion of the interrelationships between the environment and human health by publishing in a balanced and objective manner the best peer-reviewed research and most current and credible news of the field. With an impact factor of 6.12, EHP is the top monthly journal in public, environmental, and occupational health and the second-ranked monthly journal in environmental sciences. The environmental health sciences include many fields of study and increasingly comprise a multidisciplinary research area. EHP publishes articles from a wide range of scientific disciplines encompassing basic research; epidemiologic studies; risk assessment; relevant ethical, legal, social, environmental justice, and policy topics; longitudinal human studies; in vitro and in vivo animal research with a clear relationship to human health; and environmental medicine case reports. Because children are uniquely sensitive to their environments, EHP devotes a research section specifically to issues surrounding children's environmental health.
