About Me

I am an environmental health scientist, with research program centers on real-world interventional studies in human populations, through which I explore the health effects of environmental risk factor exposures (e.g., air pollution and climate change-related exposures), the underlying pathophysiologic pathways, and environmental health risk mitigation strategies.

Ultimately, my research aim to translate our findings into real-world impact by informing human behavior and shaping policy to improve public health.

Research Interests
