Mark Wilson, Ph.D., MSPH, CIH, is the research director for the Center for Analytical & Exposure Science within UL Research Institutes’ Chemical Insights in Marietta, Georgia. 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. These data are integrated into exposure models to estimate exposure levels to chemicals of concern that are evaluated for acceptability by comparison to regulatory or health-based criteria.
Mark received a Ph.D. and a Masters in Toxicology from Tulane University, School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine, in New Orleans, Louisiana. After graduate school, he completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Tulane University. During this time, Mark was involved in dietary health risk assessments focused on the impact of the Deepwater Horizon (BP) oil spill on seafood safety in the Gulf of Mexico and developed in vitro methodology to evaluate the toxic potential for chemical agents with little to no regulatory and toxicological information.
