Linking environmental change to human well-being

Understanding environmental stressors and their impacts on health

To improve understanding of the interactions between environmental stressors, human exposure and health impacts, supporting healthier, more resilient and sustainable communities.

Research integrates laboratory characterization of toxic and carcinogenic species, mobile and personal exposure monitoring for emerging pollutants, advanced risk assessment using toxicological information, and integration of atmospheric composition time series and spatially-resolved data into epidemiological models for health impact assessment.

APCG develops novel methodologies that support environmental health research, public health planning and evidence-based decision making.

Connecting environmental exposure with health impacts

APCG combines atmospheric measurements, exposure assessment, toxicological information, spatial analysis and epidemiological applications to support environmental-health research and public health decision making.
