Toxic Exposures and Women’s Health: Emerging Research and Global Solutions

In honor of International Women’s Day 2025, join us for an enlightening webinar on the critical issue of pollution’s impact on women’s health. 

Leading researchers from Columbia University, Universidad Iberoamericana, SUNY Downstate, and the Clean Label Project will present new data on the impacts of heavy metal exposure on pregnant and breastfeeding women. Surprising new findings will be revealed on toxic metal contaminants in tampons, baby foods, prenatal vitamins, cookware and cosmetics. An expert panel will explain exposure risk, health impacts, and what you can do to reduce risk for yourself and the most vulnerable – developing fetuses, infants and young children.

Join us to explore how empowering women in communities drives lasting change and how gender-informed programming improves health outcomes for women, children, and future generations. After the presentation, the audience will have the opportunity to ask questions in an open Q&A session.

Panelists include:

• Jackie Bowen, MPH, MS, Executive Director, The Clean Label Project
• Dr. Alejandra Cantoral, Professor, Universidad Iberoamericana  
• Dr. Laura Geer, Associate Professor, SUNY Downstate, School of Public Health
• Dr. Kathrin Schilling, Assistant Professor, Columbia University Irving Medical Center of Environmental Health Sciences
