Mind, Disrupted: How Toxic Chemicals May Change How We Think and Who We Are, 2010

The Mind, Disrupted Biomonitoring Project asks: What role might environmental toxins play in undermining healthy development of the brain and nervous system? How might certain environmental pollutants exacerbate the health conditions of those who already have a learning, developmental or behavioral disorder?

This report, developed in collaboration with the Commonweal Biomonitoring Project, the Environmental Health Fund and Alaska Community Action on Toxics, spotlights these pressing questions and inspires prompt actions to reduce exposures that may impair how we think—and, in the most basic ways, who we are.
