This Study will examine the association of prenatal and childhood exposure to DDT, Mn, and PBDEs with neurodevelopment and pubertal development in boys. These exposures have relevance beyond farmworker children: PBDE exposure is nearly ubiquitous in the US;Mn is widely used as a fuel additive, in fungicides, and emitted industrially;and DDT use is increasing globally for malaria control. We aim to address key data gaps on the human health effects ofthese compounds crucial for assessing public health costs and benefits.
