Disorders of sexual development are amongst the most common birth defects in humans. These conditions have profound consequences for the physical and psychological health of affected individuals. The incidence of these disorders is on the rise, and this has been linked to our increased exposure to chemicals in the environment that affect how our hormones function. This project will investigate how these chemicals affect hormonal pathways that control early development.

性发育的疾病是人类最常见的先天缺陷之一。这些条件对受影响个体的身体和心理健康产生了深远的影响。这些疾病的发病率正在上升，这与我们增加了影响激素功能的环境中的化学物质的暴露有关。该项目将研究这些化学物质如何影响控制早期发育的荷尔蒙途径。
