Metabolic effects of Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals: novel testing METhods and adverse outcome pathways

Deliverables

Initial press release

An initial press release will be prepared describing the overall goals and ambition of the project and announcing the start of the project. The press release will initially be published on the BfR webpage and will be distributed to all project partners for publication on their individual webpages.

Project brochure

The project brochure within this deliverable will be in folded leaflet format and contain important information similar to what is presented on the website, aimed at presentation of the project e.g. by distribution of the brochure at scientific meetings. An electronic version of the brochure will also be provided on the project website for download; BfR will provide the project partners with printed brochures as required.

Project website for internal access as well as for public access

A website for the project will be generated and made publicly available. The initial website for internal access will serve the purpose of internal data exchange and information (e.g. on scientific events, reporting deadlines, published papers, repository of previous deliverables and reports) and be protected by a password. The publicly available website will contain information on the project goals, partners, current activities and events, recent developments and scientific publications, as well as contact information for stakeholders. Due date: 3/6 and updates

Data management plan

Data management plan is finalised. Availability of the data management plan will guide how research data are to be handled both during the project, and after the project is completed.

Organization of midterm workshop

A stakeholder workshop to present and discuss the results from the first project phase is organized. If possible, the workshop will take place at the BfR facilities in Berlin, Germany. Organization of the workshop involves compilation of the scientific program, invitation of stakeholders, as well as general conference organization aspects. Stakeholder feedback will be collected, reviewed and used for optimization of the project strategy. A workshop report will be prepared and published as mentioned in the description of deliverable 5.6.

A validated classification system linking ED exposure to adverse outcome

A report detailing the identification of omic-level features that can be used to classify common molecular actions of known ED chemicals. These feature sets will be used to predict novel actions of ED chemicals, a proportion of which will be experimentally validated.

Workshop

Joint meeting for incorporating EDCMET findings

A list of potential biomarkers of exposure and effect for EDs

A report detailing the fingerprinting of ED chemical action across a range of omiclevels These fingerprints will be used to predict novel actions biomarkers of ED chemical exposure or effect a proportion of which will be experimentally validated

A report of new biomarkers for population studies

Associations of measured ED levels and systemic metabolism by using highthroughput serum nuclear magnetic resonance NMR spectroscopy platform will be made to find new biomarkers for population studies This task needs the information from in vitro and in vivo studies in WP3

A report of the levels of selected EDs and health outcomes

The report consists of the analyzed levels of selected EDs in the study cohorts and literature review about associations of the exposure levels of EDs and health outcomes

List of relevant events and stakeholders of the project to be involved in further activities

A list of relevant stakeholders with potential interest in the content and achievements of EDCMET is prepared. Stakeholders are identified based on their role in the field (e.g. regulatory agencies, basic science instituted, industry (see also deliverable 5.10)) and publicly available sources such as scientific publications or conference programs. The list will comprise contact persons, email addresses, affiliations and basic information about background, interests and own previous engagement in the field. The list will be hosted by BfR and will be continuously updated throughout the project.

A report of study protocol for monitoring effects of exposure to EDs in cohort studies

Principles for the study protocol suitable for detecting associations of the health outcomes and exposure to ED related compounds during pregnancy and later in life

Report with the performance based rank-order of tested metabolic ED assays

Report with the performance based rankorder of tested metabolic ED assays

Detailed dissemination and communication plan

Based on the list of the identified stakeholders and their particular interests, a dissemination and communication plan will be established. This document will contain considerations on appropriate communication and dissemination tools (e.g. newsletter, announcement on the project website, and others) to be developed and implemented for further use in the project, in order to ensure optimal interaction with the stakeholders.
