ENSP Spring 2026 Symposium - Forever Chemicals: Science and Solutions to Protect Public..
Start Date: 4/21/2026Start Time: 12:00 PM
End Date: 4/21/2026End Time: 2:00 PM
Event Description:
Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) are a group of synthetic chemicals that have been used in many common consumer products since the 1940s and 1950s. These chemicals do not degrade easily in the environment and can persist for long periods of time. PFAS contamination has been found in the soil, air, and water and has been associated with serious health effects including developmental delays, increased risk of some cancers, and reduced immune system response among others. Regulatory responses to PFAS contamination are occurring at the federal and state levels but the regulatory landscape remains in flux as the science develops and government priorities change. Furthermore, new technologies are emerging to address the PFAS challenge. This symposium will explore the current state of the science and water quality data on PFAS exposure, mitigation strategies, and the evolving legal and policy landscape surrounding regulation of PFAS.
