This program was funded by the State of Florida for the purpose of providing information predominantly

to public health departments and practicing obstetricians regarding the effects of patient medication or

agent exposures that have risk for causing birth defects. Throughout the state, our program received

calls, mostly from obstetricians, and we provided written documentation about teratogen effects of any

the agents that they wished to query. A summary of the program can be found in the publication:

Consortium Member, Florida Birth Defects Registry, 1998-2008

I was involved in the initial development of the Florida Birth Defects Registry (FBDR) and served as

the major physician consultant for birth defects-related issues for the registry. I worked:

collaboratively with the University of South Florida to pursue a variety of epidemiological studies and

birth defects surveys. During the years of my involvement with the FBDR I monitored the state for

patterns of birth defects and evaluated clusters of birth defects to determine whether such clustering

was potentially related to teratogen exposures. Publications or presentations related to birth defects are
