Kent, Ohio
Dr. Colborn, Senior Program Scientist for the Wildlife and Contaminants
Program of the World Wildlife Fund, is author of numerous scientific
publications on toxic substances that interfere with hormones and other
chemical messengers that control development in wildlife and humans. Her
work was popularized in the 1996 book "Our Stolen Future," co-authored with
Dianne Dumanoski and J. Peterson Myers. "Our Stolen Future" has been
published in more than a dozen languages.
Dr. Colborn's work has triggered worldwide public concern with endocrine
disrupters, and has prompted enactment of new laws by governments and
redirection of research by governments, the private sector and academics.
