CHE's Working Group on Fertility/Early Pregnancy Compromise meets via quarterly hour-long teleconferences and a listserv to:

a) Create a space to bridge scientists, clinical researchers and medical practitioners from different disciplines with each other and with patient groups, professional society representatives, environmentalists, funders, those working in women's health and reproductive advocacy arenas, and other concerned individuals.

b) Learn about and discuss science elucidating links between environmental contaminants and infertility, related reproductive health disorders, and pregnancy compromise.

c) Highlight critically important research (existing and needed) on environmental contaminant effects on fertility.

d) Promote educational opportunities and awareness among reproductive health/fertility patients and professionals about environmental influences on fertility.

e) Explore collaborative efforts to further these goals.
 
This working group is facilitated by CHE Program Associate, Julia Varshavsky. Julia can be reached at: Julia@HealthandEnvironment.org.
