This project develops a combined intake and physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to complement the regression model of the University of Michigan Dioxin Exposure Study (http://www.sph.umich.edu/dioxin/) and establish causal relationships. This work constitutes an important step in refining and building confidence in the statistical model. It will increase the model's ability to inform.. >> more

Creation of an adaptive multimedia model determining intake fractions at local (1km grid around the emission source), regional (200km grid within the continent of emission) and continental (world divided in continents) levels. Special emphasis is given to further develop modeling of exposure in the food chain linked to highest intake fractions and high level of uncertainties. This research builds up.. >> more

Leader: Stuart Batterman (Ph.D.)
Our teaching and research address a wide range of topics in occupational, indoor and environmental settings. Topics include exposure assessment (especially for particulate matter and volatile organic compounds or VOCs); emerging contaminants in occupational, ecological and environmental settings (e.g., brominated flame retardants); biological monitoring (e.g., blood, breath); air quality monitoring.. >> more

Leader: Olivier Jolliet (Ph.D.)
The Impact and Risk Modeling (iMod) laboratory aims to provide the scientific knowledge for assessing environmental risks and impacts of chemicals and of innovative technologies, in order to:
(1) Model population-based exposure and multi-pathways intake fractions for outdoor and indoor chemical emissions
(2) Assess individual and population body burdens and risks using physiologically based pharmacokinetic/dynamic.. >> more
