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.

性发育障碍是人类最常见的出生缺陷之一。这些情况对受影响个人的身心健康产生深远影响。这些疾病的发病率正在上升，这与我们接触环境中影响我们激素功能的化学物质的增加有关。该项目将研究这些化学物质如何影响控制早期发育的激素途径。
