Human Exposure to Environmental Contaminants and Associated Health Effects Exposure of susceptible groups, such as children, to persistent toxic substances and the resulting effects of exposure Assessment of the contribution of dietary exposure to persistent toxic substances to an individual’s total level of exposure. Monitoring the biological effects of persistent toxic substance exposure as determined by the measurement of biomarkers of disease, oxidative damage and DNA modifications I obtained my PhD in Biochemistry/Cell Biology however the focus of my research has changed and I am now involved in a number of projects relating to environmental exposures and their health effects. I have been involved in a number of research projects which include investigating the exposure of pregnant women to a range of environmental contaminants (metals, pesticides, persistent organic compounds and Bisphenol A) and children’s exposure to metals, emerging pollutants and particulate matter. Recently I have been working on a study examining exposure to metals in women aged 50 and above, and the effects o exposure on their bone density and kidney function. My background in biological sciences means that I am keen to explore ways of investigating not just personal exposure to environmental contaminants, but also the health effects of exposure and the biological mechanisms underlying those effects. I am particularly interested in environmental contaminants relating to health outcomes in susceptible population groups such as young children and the elderly. The effect of pre-natal exposure to environmental contaminants on pregnancy and birth outcomes is also an area of considerable interest to me. In addition I am keen to explore the contribution of dietary exposure of metals and pollutants to an individual’s total exposure.
