DENAMIC

The European commission-funded project DENAMIC "Developmental Neurotoxicity Assessment of Mixtures in Children" investigates neurotoxic effects of low-concentration mixtures of pesticides and a number of common environmental pollutants in children. We focus on (subclinical) effects on learning (cognitive skills) and developmental disorders in children (e.g. ADHD, autism spectrum disorders and anxiety disorders). DENAMIC will develop tools and methods for screening of neurotoxic effects.
