In this episode of A Daily Dose, we take a step away from the science and four special guests share with us their experiences as being women in this field of science, as well as their concerns that female-centered research is understudied.

The first organ involved in forming human life is the placenta, and the importance of this protective barrier has been understood for hundreds of years, revered in various ways in different cultures before its scientific properties were ever understood. These properties are still not fully known to modern scientists, though Dr. Heather Patisaul and Dr. Jean-Baptiste Fini are some of those working on uncovering the mysteries of this fascinating organ.

Chemicals commonly found in treatments for furniture, textiles, and even present in dust in your house have been shown in animal models to cause extremely damaging reactions in your body. Like pesticides, flame retardant chemicals found in furniture and other possibly flammable items in your house have neurotoxic properties and may contain incredibly carcinogenic components. For some of the chemical groups known to cause adverse effects, the half-life can be in the range of years and even decades. Using data collected from individuals and animals, convincing governments and individuals has become the focus of precautionary steps as we advance.
