Core Projects
The research carried out by the UK-J partners focusses on various aspects of endocrine disruption, ranging from assessments of the effects of treatment processes on the endocrine activity in wastewaters, quantifying the potency of the various chemicals contained in wastwater discharges, defining the mechanisms of action of the endocrine disrupting chemicals of concern, and ecological impacts on wildlife. The research is divided into 4 core projects:
Core 1 - Fate of EDCs and Emerging Contaminants such as Pharmaceuticals and Nanoparticles in the Environment and their Remediation 
Core 2 - Advancing Testing Systems 
Core 3 - Genomic and Molecular Approaches in Ecotoxicology 
Core 4 - Risk Assessment and Population Level Effects of Environmental Contaminants
