Over the years, a growing number of studies have shown that these substances can alter the production of hormones that play a vital role in the development of living organisms and of diseases, notably in humans. \u201cIt\u2019s important to ensure the chemicals our society uses are safe, especially for those most vulnerable to their effects\u2014our children\u2014but also for the animals that may be exposed to them in our ecosystems,\u201d said ICEDA director Val\u00e9rie Langlois.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br><strong>The ICEDA Research Program <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>ICEDA\u2019s goal is to foster international collaboration between researchers from different disciplines who are interested in the study and analysis of endocrine disruptors. Through these multidisciplinary collaborations, ICEDA seeks to contribute in new ways to a better understanding of the issues related to these substances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ICEDA research will focus primarily on environmental health, human health, water treatment, analytical chemistry, epidemiology, and environmental policy. The group already has more than 100 members in Canada, the United States, France, Spain, Germany, Argentina, and the Netherlands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>INRS has taken a visionary stance on the importance of endocrine disruptor research by providing dedicated funding for the creation of this new intersectoral research centre. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cI am confident that the interdisciplinary research work resulting from ICEDA will contribute, in an innovative way, to finding concrete solutions to several priority issues for Quebec, including human and environmental health and water treatment,\u201d stated Luc-Alain Giraldeau, Chief Executive Officer of INRS.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>For the latest news from ICEDA and its members and partner groups, follow the centre on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ciape.iceda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CIAPE_ICEDA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br><strong>About ICEDA<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The mission of the Centre is to inform, assist, and act as a resource for government, non-profit organizations, and industry.
