Research led by Center Investigator Megan Romano and co-authored by Center Director Margaret Karagas was featured in the Association of Schools & Programs of Public Health’s Friday Letter. Dr. Romano and her co-authors studied the influence of phthalates on maternal and newborn thyroid hormones. Their findings suggest that co-exposure to multiple phthalates is inversely associated with total thyroxine among pregnant women and newborns and highlights the importance of integrating statistical methods for studying chemical mixtures into environmental epidemiology studies.
