The study aims to identify genetic differences that are responsible for determining how individuals respond to exposure to endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs), thus elucidating how DNA sequence differences influence our susceptibility to environmentally-based disease. This award provides three years of support for newly independent faculty who intend to pursue careers focused on environmental health sciences research, including pilot funding and salary support. Dr Ideraabdullah\u2019s primary sponsor for this mentored career development award will be Dr Rebecca Fry.
