SUPPORT OF COLLABORATIVE STUDIES OF EXPOSURE TO ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINANTS IN RELATION TO CHILD HEALTH IN THE GENERATION R STUDY

该合同支持NIEHS研究人员与R世代研究人员之间的科学合作。R世代研究先前收集了孕妇的多个尿液样本，并在儿童6岁时对其进行了亲自评估。在这个合作项目中，我们将选择尿液样本进行分析，对样本进行分析，然后将结果与儿童发育联系起来，以确定背景水平暴露于环境污染物的不利影响，如果有的话。

The contract supports a scientific collaboration between investigators at NIEHS and those conducting the Generation R Study. The Generation R Study has previously collected multiple urine specimens from pregnant women and has followed the children with in-person assessments at age 6 years. In this collaborative project we will select urine specimens for analysis, get the specimens analyzed, and then relate the results to child development, to identify adverse effects, if any, of background-level exposure to environmental contaminants.
