Dr. Joel Brind is a biochemist who has specialized in reproductive steroid hormones and their links to human diseases since 1972. A 1971 graduate of Yale College, he earned his doctorate in basic medical science from New York University in 1981.

Since 1986, Dr. Brind has been a Professor of Human Biology and Endocrinology at Baruch College of the City University of New York. He is currently the Deputy Chairman for Biology at Baruch.

Since coming across the link between abortion and breast cancer in 1992, Dr. Brind has devoted most of his research efforts to studying and promoting awareness of what has come to be known as the "ABC link." In 1996, along with colleagues from the Penn State University College of Medicine, Dr. Brind published a "comprehensive review and meta-analysis" on the ABC link in the British Medical Association's epidemiology journal. In 1999, along with three physician-colleagues, Dr. Brind founded the nonprofit Breast Cancer Prevention Institute (BCPI), which is now headquartered in Bound Brook, New Jersey. He currently serves on BCPI's Board of Directors.

From 2003-2006, Dr. Brind served as a member of the federal advisory committee of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on the early detection and control of breast and cervical cancer.

Dr. Brind's most recent review of ABC link research, dealing with studies published during the previous decade, appears in the winter 2005 issue of the Journal of American Physicians and Surgeons.
