Prenatal exposure to metals like arsenic, lead, and methyl mercury poses significant health risks to both mothers and developing offspring. This symposium summarized evidence on these risks, underlying mechanisms, and legal implications.

Area of Science:

  • Toxicology
  • Environmental Health
  • Reproductive Health

Background:

  • The symposium focused on health risks from in utero metal exposure.
  • Metals discussed include arsenic (As), lead (Pb), and methyl mercury (MeHg).
  • Exposure sources include workplace and ambient environments.

Framework:

  • The symposium presented epidemiological and toxicological evidence.
  • Discussions covered health effects and underlying mechanisms of metal exposure.
  • Legal and personal implications of prenatal metal exposure were also addressed.

Implementation:

  • The event was held at the 33rd Annual Meeting of the Society of Toxicology (SOT).
  • Cosponsored by the Metals and Reproductive and Developmental Specialty Sections of SOT.
