lSt Announcement of the Annual Meeting of the European Teratology Society

in conjunction with the Satellite Symposium on “ Adverse Effects of Endocrine Disruptors”

September 7-11,2002, Hannover, Germany First, a Satellite Symposium on the “Adverse Effects of Endocrine Disrupters” will be held. This Symposium is co-organized with the Toxicology Section of the German Pharmacology-Toxicology Society (DGPT). We hope that many of their members can join us and stay for the following keynote lecture on “Functional Genomics” and the Annual ETS-meeting. At the ETS we are scheduling Symposia and Work- shops with topics appealing to a wide range of participants involved in basic and clinical research, as well as industrial and regulatory issues. The Symposium on “Nutrition and Pregnancy” is organized together with the Teratology Society of the USA, and ENTIS (European network of Teratology Information Services) will organize a Clinical Workshop.

Some Highlights of the Scientific Program:

“Adverse Effects of Endocrine Disrupters” - Mechanism of adverse effects of endocrine disrupters - Estrogenic and androgenic effects * Broad range of hormonally-active substances

Keynote lecture : “Functional Genomics and Development”

Dietary- vs. xeno-hormones Emerging issue: Low dose effects Genetic polymorphisms / SNPs

Symposia - Standard testing procedures of endocrine disrupters - What can they predict? Nutrition and pregnancy: co-organized with the Teratology Society USA Folic acid

* Molecular pathways in normal development and dysmorphogenesis

- results from the supplementation in the USA - should the European population be supplemented also?

Workshops - Alternative methods: stem cells, new molecular techniques Clinical drug testing organized by ENTIS * Reproductive toxicology data bases

Special action: New EU-programs, Partner finding
