SUMMARY:Chemicals and Pregnancy Complications: Findings from Nontargeted Analysis
DESCRIPTION:Toxic chemicals are ubiquitous in the environment. Fewer than 1% of the over 40\,000 chemicals imported\, processed\, or used in the U.S. are regularly biomonitored. Still fewer have been evaluated for adverse health outcomes during pregnancy. Chemical exposures during pregnancy have been linked with lifelong consequences for maternal and child health including cardiovascular disease\, diabetes\, adverse infant neurodevelopment\, and reproductive outcomes. These health outcomes are increasing at rates that cannot be fully explained by genetics or improvements in diagnostics. \nNon-targeted analysis (NTA) methods can help us tentatively identify chemicals that are not regularly studied. These chemicals can then be quantified through “targeted” methods\, giving us the ability to evaluate the association with adverse health outcomes. \nDr. Jessica Trowbridge and Dr. Tracey Woodruff will present the findings of their new study\, Extending Nontargeted Discovery of Environmental Chemical Exposures during Pregnancy and Their Association with Pregnancy Complications—A Cross-Sectional Study. This study uses the results of NTA methods to identify nine environmental chemicals in maternal samples and in cord blood\, and their association with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Some of these chemicals were measured in this study for the first time in pregnant people. The study finds chemical exposure is widespread\, including to perfluoroalkyl substances\, abnormal fatty acids used in plastics production\, and solvents used in consumer products\, pesticide production\, and plastics production. Additionally\, PFAS and abnormal fatty acids are associated with increased odds of gestational diabetes mellitus and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. \nThis study demonstrates the power of non-targeted methods to identify and measure environmental chemicals that are not regularly studied. It adds to the evidence that environmental contaminants can have lifelong consequences for pregnancy and health. \n\n

SUMMARY:Forging a Future with Nature
DESCRIPTION:A future supported by the natural environment depends on our effective involvement in decisions in our homes\, communities\, states\, and at the federal level to ensure that we are taking the steps necessary to protect against existential threats to health\, biodiversity\, and climate. The Forum is an important opportunity to hear from those working as scientists\, advocates\, land managers (from gardens\, parks\, play fields to farms)\, and public decision makers about steps being taken and action needed to prevent catastrophic collapse of the natural systems that sustain life. \nPlan Now to Join Us! \nThe goal of the Forum Series is to enable a collective strategy to address the existential health\, biodiversity\, and climate threats and chart a path for a livable and sustainable future. We come together to empower effective action. You are part of the solution! \n  Session 1:  Sept 14\, 2023 – 1:00-3:30pm Eastern (EDT)  |   Session 2: Oct TBA   |   Session 3: Nov TBA \nThe Forum Series begins September 14\, 2023 and will continue through October and November—dates to be announced. \nSeptember 14\, 2023 featuring David Goulson\, PhD and André Leu\, DSc.
