New in EHP: Zebrafish Study Points to PFOS Early-Life Exposure Effects
My latest Science Selection news article for Environmental Health Perspectives covers a new study in the journal that uses larval zebrafish as a screening tool for potential neurodevelopmental effects in humans -- in this case from two related chemicals within the larger PFAS class. The study is interesting not just for what it tells us about these two chemicals, but also, more importantly, for its methods and design, which can be replicated to rapidly screen countless other chemicals that so far lack any sort of data on potential neurodevelopmental effects.
