# SUMMARY:

Beginning on Thursday, April 12, 2007 (9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.) and continuing through Friday, April 13, 2007 (9 a.m.-12:30 p.m.), Dr. Walter Rogan of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences will sponsor a meeting with experts in pediatric endocrinology, psychology, epidemiology, and nutrition to discuss soy estrogens and infant development. The meeting will be held at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. 

During 2004-05, NIEHS conducted pilot studies to test innovative ethods for studying estrogenic isoflavones in soy formula and their potential ability to act as pharmacologic estrogens in infants by prolonging anatomical and biochemical markers in infants. The results of these studies are becoming available. While the investigators are at the early stage of planning what, if any, steps to take next, they have convened experts in pediatric endocrinology, psychology, epidemiology, nutrition, etc., to offer their individual opinions. 

This meeting is open to the public, but is limited by space. Registration is free but required. Please also note that the following security procedures must be followed when visiting the NIEHS:
