Endocrine disrupting chemicals and thyroid function - Webinar from British Thyroid Foundation

European Hormone Day is 24 April. One of the themes of the day is to raise awareness about endocrine-disrupting chemicals. These are used in packaging, pesticides and biocides, cosmetics and toys and are known to contribute to incidences of endocrine cancers, obesity, diabetes, thyroid disease and rising rates of infertility.

As a follow-up to European Hormone Day, we will be joined by a panel of international experts on 30 April to discuss endocrine-disrupting chemicals and their effect on thyroid health.

Our speaker will be Prof Elizabeth Pearce, Professor of Medicine, Boston. The session will be chaired by Marian Ludgate, Prof Emerita of Molecular Endocrinology, Cardiff.
