Environmental Epidemiology, Air Modeling
Dr. Ilias Kavouras is a Professor and Chair of the Department of Environmental, Occupational and Geospatial Health Sciences at the City University of New York's Graduate School of Public Health and Health Policy. His research focuses on understanding the connections between atmospheric pollution and human health. Specifically, his research experience includes assessing cumulative cancer and non-cancer risks of exposures to air toxics, emissions of particulates and ozone precursors from industrial, traffic and natural sources and the transport and fate of these pollutants from upwind and distant sources, and the toxicological and epigenetic effects of particulate pollution.
Oil & Gas Epidemiology
Dr. Joan A. Casey is an Assistant Professor at the University of Washington. She has experience in conducting epidemiological studies using electronic health record data and birth certificates to evaluate the potential health implications of oil and gas development on population health.
Mental Health, Disaster Behavior Health
Dr. Sarah Lowe is a clinical psychologist and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Social and Behavioral Sciences at Yale School of Public Health. Her research focuses on the long-term mental health consequences of a range of potentially traumatic events, as well as the impact of such events on other domains of functioning, such as physical health, social relationships and economic wellbeing.
Cancer Epidemiology
Dr. Sophia S. Wang is a professor in the Division of Health Analytics and the City of Hope's Comprehensive Cancer Center. As a cancer researcher focused on the immunologic underpinnings of cancer development, particularly heme malignancies, she also has ongoing and pending studies on air pollution and other environmental exposures based in California.
Toxicology, Environmental Science
Dr. Tee Lamont Guidotti is a Physician and independent consultant with Occupational + Environmental Health & Medicine. He has a career interest and publications on occupational and environmental hazards in the oil and gas industry, including oversight of a seven-year, $8M epidemiological study on downwind effects of natural gas exposure in western Canada.
Air Monitoring
Dr. Andrea Polidori is the Advanced Monitoring Technologies Manager at the South Coast AQMD in the Science and Technology Advancement Division. He holds a Ph.D. in Environmental Science and worked as a Research Professor at the University of Southern California, conducting research on the relationships between indoor and outdoor air pollutants.
Epidemiology
Andrew Rosenberg is a Research Scientist in the Climate Change and Health Unit of the Environmental Health Investigations Branch (EHIB) at the California Department of Public Health (CDPH). His work primarily focuses on environmental-epidemiologic research exploring adverse health effects related to ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and smoke-specific PM2.5 exposure from wildland fires in California. He has organized and carried out complex scientific studies independently and as part of interdisciplinary teams conducting extensive population health investigations related to ambient air pollution and the public health impacts of wildland fire emissions.
Disaster Response/Recovery
Dr. Daniel Dodgen is the Senior Advisor for Strategy, Policy, and Planning with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response. He has been a leader for behavioral health and vulnerable populations in the response to the Northridge Earthquake, 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, and multiple fires, hurricanes, and mass violence events.
Air Modeling
Dr. Jorn Herner is Chief of the Research Planning, Administration, & Emissions Mitigation Branch with the California Air Resources Board (CARB)
Epidemiology
Dr. Rashmi Shetgiri is the Director of the Office of Health Assessment and Epidemiology at the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health.
