Environmental exposure research focuses on understanding how individuals come into contact with harmful substances in their environment, such as air pollution, water contamination, and chemicals in consumer products. This area of research examines the pathways through which people are exposed to these substances, the health effects of exposure, and how to mitigate or prevent exposure to protect public health and the environment. Researchers in this field often use a combination of epidemiological studies, toxicology, and environmental monitoring to assess and quantify environmental exposures and their impact on human health. By identifying and measuring exposure levels, researchers can inform policies and interventions to reduce harmful exposures and improve overall public health.
