SUMMARY:HEAL webinar series on the health impacts of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances
DESCRIPTION:HEAL webinar series on the health impacts of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances will be held on 23 January 2024 at 15:00 CET. \nThe HEAL Virtual Webinar Series on PFAS and Human Health is a crucial initiative aimed at raising awareness about the health impacts of PFAS (Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances). These chemicals\, widely used in consumer products\, have been linked to various health concerns\, including immune system disruption\, cancer\, and developmental issues. The series invites leading experts to discuss the health effects of PFAS exposure\, with each webinar focusing on different aspects of this growing issue. The series aims to inform the public and policymakers on the importance of addressing PFAS contamination and its long-term health implications. \nOrganized in partnership with the Association of European Cancer Leagues (ECL)\, this session will explore the links between PFAS and cancer\, considering the evaluation from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and supporting epidemiological studies. The webinar will feature Dr. Tony Fletcher\, an Associate Professor at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine\, who has led research on PFAS exposure in communities in Ronneby\, Sweden\, and Veneto\, Italy. His research has contributed to understanding the carcinogenic potential of PFAS and its widespread health risks. \nThis webinar is part of a broader effort to educate and raise awareness about the dangers of PFAS exposure. Recordings of previous webinars\, including topics on the immune system and the effects of early-life exposure to PFAS\, will also be made available for those who wish to catch up on the ongoing discussion. The series serves as a critical platform for sharing the latest scientific findings and fostering discussions on how to mitigate the health risks associated with these harmful substances. \nRegistration is Open.
