Our purpose is to understand the behavioral and developmental alterations that
result from genetic and environmental perturbations of the nervous system
during the pre- and perinatal period.
The Neurobehavioral Teratology Society was formed in 1977. Its purpose is to
understand the behavioral and developmental alterations that result from
genetic and environmental perturbations of the nervous system during the pre-
and perinatal period. NBTS is also focused on communicating such findings to
physicians, scientists, public health officials and the general public in order
to promote awareness and lessen the risks for teratologic occurrences in the
population at large. NBTS also has a special focus of educating scientists in
the appropriate methodology for conducting teratologic research.
