Health care is one of the most challenging policy areas we face today. An interdisciplinary group of scholars is currently engaged in research on the ways that environmental health researchers, public health organizations, community groups, and behavioral and social scientists can combine their knowledge to respond to potential threats to health posed by exposures to toxics found in the environment. A number of other projects to address this general substantive area are in development.
