First Achievements
The ENDOMIX project explores how mixtures of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) affect health across the human lifespan, with a focus on immune system impacts. Using human biomonitoring data from European cohorts, the project combines pioneering methodologies ranging from high-throughput in vitro bioassays, sophisticated organoid and co-culture systems to in vivo models to uncover mechanisms and long-term […]
New publication out
New Study from ENDOMIX Project Links Prenatal Chemical Exposure to Eczema in Children ENDOMIX has published an exciting new study on the Lina birth cohort, revealing the impact of prenatal exposure to phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA) mixtures on eczema risk in children. The ENDOMIX researchers found that individual phthalates are associated with increased eczema […]
ENDOMIX: Promoting Long-Term Health for Mother and Child
“Healthy beginnings, hopeful futures” is this year’s theme of the World Health Day 2025, which emphasizes the need to promote the health of mothers and their newborns. Pregnancy and childhood are critical stages for establishing lifelong health and well-being, yet they also represent vulnerable periods of life when exposure to everyday chemicals with endocrine-disrupting properties […]
