M.S., Ph.D.

Program Description:

The Department of Environmental Health Sciences is devoted to the study of the fundamental mechanisms responsible for disease processes initiated or aggravated by environmental agents. The realization that indoor as well as outdoor environments consist of complex interacting systems that require the development of new approaches to understand the basis of their action was the impetus for the creation of the department. Current research interests of the faculty include chemical and environmental carcinogenesis, DNA damage and repair, genetic and reproductive toxicology, cytogenetics, radiation biology, and clinical and forensic toxicology.
