About this Project

Goal: To provide insight into toxicological mechanisms of PM-induced cardiopulmonary effects, particularly as they relate to susceptible subpopulations; and generate toxicological data to directly correspond to epidemiology and exposure assessment data from concurrent studies being conducted at one of the project locations.
