Staff writerKYOTO -- In an attempt to exchange the latest research on one of the most critical environmental issues today, more than 1,100 scientists and government officials from eight countries gathered Friday in Kyoto for a three-day symposium on endocrine disrupters.
The gathering, organized by the Environment Agency, was mainly for scientists. Sunday's session, however, is aimed at explaining the latest research on the issue to the public.
During the three-day session, 39 researchers and government officials, including 23 from overseas, were scheduled to present the results of their studies at the Kyoto International Conference Hall.
