Faculty

Hedy Alavi, PhD, is an expert in hazardous and solid waste engineering and management.

An expert in environmental systems analysis, Hugh's innovative models and analysis are integral to critical, policy-shaping research studies ranging from climate issues to public health.

Jacqueline Agnew, PhD '92, seeks to better understand the relationship between workplace exposures, worker characteristics, and musculoskeletal disorders.

Jaime Madrigano, ScD, MPH, does work that emphasizes environmental justice and aims to reduce population-wide environmental health disparities by producing results to inform equitable policies.

Jessie Buckley, PhD, MPH, studies early life environmental chemical exposures to inform policies targeted at improving children’s health.

John Groopman, PhD, research involves the development and application of molecular biomarkers of exposure, dose, and effect from environmental carcinogens.

Jonathan Links, PhD '83, is interested in public health preparedness and response for all hazards, ionizing radiation, biomarkers, mathematical modeling, and non-invasive medical imaging.

Joseph Bressler, PhD, studies how environmental pollutants affect neurodevelopment with specific interests in autism and fetal alcohol syndrome.

Katya Tsaioun, PhD, MS, leads international multi-stakeholder efforts to establish evidence-based methodologies and practices in translational research to inform regulatory decisions.

Keeve Nachman, PhD ’06, MHS ’01, aims to generate the scientific evidence needed to support decisions that mitigate human exposures to chemical and microbial hazards associated with food production.

Kellogg Schwab, PhD, integrates engineering, public health, and human behavior by researching water and wastewater contaminants of public health concern.

Kirsten Koehler, PhD, research seeks to improve exposure assessment methods to inform occupational and public health policy.

Lena Smirnova, PhD, researches the development of new methodologies for developmental neurotoxicity testing and understanding gene environmental interactions in autism.

Lesliam Quirós-Alcalá, PhD, MSc, applies exposure science and environmental epidemiology to study chemical exposures’ health effects in underrepresented populations.
