Letter to Hon. Tony Clement, Minister of Health re: Immediate support needed for MIREC-ID to ensure Canadian leadership on children’s environmental health research

The Maternal-Infant Research on Environmental Chemicals – Infant Development (MIREC-ID) proposal could position Canada as a global leader in research on the potential links between environmental exposures in utero and child health outcomes. The recently launched MIREC study is addressing a critical need for biomonitoring research to assess maternal and fetal exposures to a number of chemicals of concern in today’s environment.
