A variety of chemicals are used in everything from textiles to cosmetics and personal care products to food packaging. Many of these exhibit unintended harmful consequences to humans and wildlife.
Three researchers from the UC Davis Superfund Research Program will discuss how these chemicals interact within our bodies to disrupt normal functions and the development of new tools, such as cell lines to measure toxicity and antibodies to measure these harmful chemicals.
The talk is Oct. 24 at 6pm at the Tahoe Environmental Research Center on the campus of Sierra Nevada College in Incline Village.
Cost is $5.
