LEARNING OBJECTIVES: 

  • To understand the meaning of translational research.
  • To understand how a translational approach for the problem of early chronic exposure to low-level lead exposure informs the development of an animal model.
  • To understand two pathways by which low-level lead exposure might alter brain structure and function.
