SCOPE/IUPAC International Symposium on Endocrine Active Substances
The Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE) and IUPAC are jointly organizing an International Project on "Environmental Implications of Endocrine Active Substances: Present State of the Art and Future Research Needs." The project started in April 2000 and is scheduled to be completed in March 2003. The SCOPE/IUPAC International Symposium on Endocrine Active Substances, to be held 17-21 November 2002 in Yokohama, Japan, will constitute a major milestone for the project. All of the project contributors (ca. 60 experts) will present papers dealing with the following topics:
Molecular Mode of Action of Nuclear Receptors; Fundamentals for Understanding the Action of Endocrine Active Substances
Environmental Fate and Metabolism of Endocrine Active Substances
Effects of Endocrine Active Chemicals in Rodents and Humans, and Risk Assessments for Humans
Effects of Endocrine Active Substances in Wildlife Species
In addition, six supplementary workshops will be held:
Effectiveness of QSAR for prescreening of endocrine disruptor hazard
Toxicogenomics as a rational approach to endocrine disruptor research
The need for establishing integrated monitoring programs
Simple, rapid assay for conventional definitive testings of endocrine disruptor hazard
Precautionary principle/approach and weight of evidence in endocrine disruptor issues
Risk management options for endocrine disruptors in national and international programs
See the symposium announcement in CI, Vol. 23, No. 5, p. 156, September 2001.
