Dr. Barbara F. Hales passed away on July 12, 2024. She was a luminary in the fields of developmental and reproductive toxicology and had an illustrious career marked by significant contributions to understanding the impacts of teratogens and environmental chemicals on health. Dr. Hales was an eminent James McGill Professor in the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics at McGill University and an active member of the Society for Birth Defects Research and Prevention (formerly the Teratology Society) for over 40 years. She served as Society President in 2009-2010 and as co-editor of the Teratology Primer. Dr. Hales was an active volunteer on numerous committees and workgroups and was a dedicated mentor to many trainees. Her obituary may be found here. It is expected that a tribute to Dr. Hales and her impact on the Society and in the field will be published in a forthcoming issue of the journal Birth Defects Research.
Raymond Schroeder, MS
October 12, 1943 — March 21, 2024
Long-time Society member Ray Schroeder passed away on March 21, 2024. His obituary can be found here.
Mr. Schroeder was a highly experienced developmental and reproductive toxicologist in safety testing. He began his career at Searle, subsequently becoming a study director in New Jersey at Bio/dynamics, a contract research laboratory later known as Pharmaco/LSR. He completed his career at MPI Research, now a part of Charles River Laboratories.
Mr. Schroeder was not only a regular attendee to our Society's annual meetings, but for many years he was a regular at the volleyball games. He often attended continuing education courses even as he neared retirement, a reflection of his love for developmental toxicology and commitment to doing good work. As a study director, he was equally considerate to his staff and his clients. As a colleague, he was kind, supp

Abstract
Background
The 3D Cohort Study (Design, Develop, Discover) was established to help bridge knowledge gaps about the links between various adverse exposures during pregnancy with birth outcomes and later health outcomes in children.
Methods
Pregnant women and their partners were recruited during the first trimester from nine sites in Quebec and followed along with their children through to 2 years of age. Questionnaires were administered during pregnancy and post‐delivery to collect information on demographics, mental health and life style, medical history, psychosocial measures, diet, infant growth, and neurodevelopment. Information on the delivery and newborn outcomes were abstracted from medical charts. Biological specimens were collected from mothers during each trimester, fathers (once during the pregnancy), and infants (at delivery and 2 years of age) for storage in a biological specimen bank.
Results
Of the 9864 women screened, 6348 met the eligibility criteria and 2366 women participated in the study (37% of eligible women). Among women in the 3D cohort, 1721 of their partners (1704 biological fathers) agreed to participate (73%). Two thousand two hundred and nineteen participants had a live singleton birth (94%). Prenatal blood and urine samples as well as vaginal secretions were collected for ≥98% of participants, cord blood for 81% of livebirths, and placental tissue for 89% of livebirths.
Conclusions
The 3D Cohort Study combines a rich bank of multiple biological specimens with extensive clinical, life style, and psychosocial data. This data set is a valuable resource for studying the developmental etiology of birth and early childhood neurodevelopmental outcomes.
