Much attention has focused on the identification of drugs and chemicals that produce malformations following human exposure during in utero development. However, as noted by the authors of this monograph, that is only one of the four types of adverse effects that may occur following exposure (or treatment) during development. Over the past several decades, clinicians and developmental scientists have established that developmental toxicity includes not only structural malformations but also growth retardation and death, as well as functional (including behavioral) abnormalities. Research by these clinicians and developmental scientists has also pointed out that vulnerable periods for developmental toxicology may begin prior to conception and extend well beyond birth.
