Public health impact of air pollution
Research Accomplishments
and Activities
Three-year research project funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and NIOSH to design, construct, and test technology to reduce particulate (soot) emissions from diesel-engine powered machinery and vehicles.
Project funded by the U.S. EPA and the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma Office of Environmental Affairs to develop a novel technique for detecting hydrocarbon contamination in soils.
Lead scientist on a project studying jet engine exhaust emissions for the U.S. Air Force Institute for Environment, Safety, and Occupational Health Risk Analysis, 1998-2001.
Research Philosophy
We have an obligation to future generations
to be good stewards of our environment. By doing
so, we promote our own public health, economic
growth, and long-term sustainability. We need
the best and brightest minds to work on solving
the problems of global climate change, urban
air pollution, and unsafe working environments.
The solutions are made by combining established
and new techniques in chemistry, biology, physics,
economics, and engineering.
