Innovations in Assessing the Health Impact of Air Pollution
Air pollution from natural disasters, such as wildfires and dust storms, has been an increasing threat to the health of affected populations. The assessment of human health risks of such air pollution is challenging because of the unique characteristics of the pollutants and insufficient pollutant data.
Dr. Liu will demonstrate a few new approaches to address the challenges in estimating the health impact of wildfire smoke and pollutant mixtures.
