What Role Does Research Play in Understanding Endocrine Disruptors and Cancer?
Research is crucial in understanding the mechanisms by which endocrine disruptors contribute to cancer. Long-term epidemiological studies and laboratory research help identify the specific chemicals involved, their sources, and their effects on the body. Organizations like TEDX compile and disseminate this research to inform public policy, guide regulatory decisions, and educate the public about the risks associated with endocrine disruptors.
