Levels of endocrine-disrupting chemicals are associated with changes in the peri-pubertal epigenome

Puberty marks a transition period, which leads to the attainment of adult sexual maturity. Timing of puberty is a strongly heritable trait. However, large genetic association studies can only explain a fraction of the observed variability and striking secular trends suggest that lifestyle and/or env...
