And now in a conference, the researchers are focussing on the long-term consequences of hormones and endocrine disruptors in the environment.
Among the topics are population dynamics modeling as a tool for the environmental risk assessment of endocrine disrupting chemicals, a structure-activity relationship analysis for identifying environmental estrogens, molecular field analysis methods for modeling endocrine disruptors, and the structure-activity modeling of a diverse set of androgen receptor ligands.
They are called hormone disruptors or endocrine disruptors because their form imitates the chemical makeup of the hormones within our body and the body finds it difficult to differentiate between the parabens and the real hormones.
