Join us for the presentation “Effects of Wildfires on Residential Indoor PM2.5 Levels and Systemic Biomarkers”

Presenters:

Mark Wilson, Ph.D., MSPH, CIH, is the research director for the Center for Analytical & Exposure Science within UL Research Institutes’ Chemical Insights. His work aims to characterize exposures associated with various occupational and environmental scenarios to evaluate health risks. Mark’s methodology is based on the collection of various environmental samples (air, water, food, dust/soil) to determine the presence and quantify the levels of chemical hazards present.

David Kalafut is a field research scientist at UL Research Institutes’ Chemical Insights, where he focuses on collecting and identifying chemical and elemental hazards and particulate matter in air, soil, and water. His work supports the evaluation of potential human health effects and the development of strategies to reduce community exposure to environmental hazards. David utilizes various sampling tools and integrates high-resolution geospatial data with analytical results to identify hazard concentrations and locations.

The Indoor Air conference series is a leading scientific platform for advancing knowledge in indoor air quality and climate globally. It brings together science, engineering, and public health to address how to create healthier indoor environments where people spend their lives and time.
