Dr. Frederick vom Saal, PhD. University of Missouri, Columbia Curators Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Biological Sciences Effects of estrogenic endocrine disrupting chemicals on fetal development Research in my laboratory concerns the effects on fetal development of endogenous sex hormones, naturally occurring estrogenic chemicals in food, (such as phytoestrogens in soy), and estrogenic manmade chemicals in consumer products (such as bisphenol A in plastic). We collect fetal mouse reproductive tissues and use primary mouse and human cell culture to investigate cellular mechanisms that mediate responses to hormones and other chemicals. We have confirm observations from in vivo experiments using mice. An important aspect of this research is that we use a physiologically based approach to determine the doses of chemicals that we examine. This approach has led to findings that fetal tissues are extremely sensitive to much lower doses of endogenous estradiol and manmade estrogenic chemicals than had previously been appreciated.    Here is a pdf of Publications, Awards, News - http://biology.missouri.edu/people/?person=203#section-4

Here is a showcase of a few researchers who have studied endocrine disruption and other effects of environmental toxins including gender alteration.

Below is a summary of Dr. Warren Porter's list of EPA Omissions in the Safety Registration Process

In other words, these are all the areas that they do NOT test before approving a new chemical.
