Zona Abierta: Biological Causes of Neurodevelopmental Issues: The Role of Environmental Exposures
Presented by the UIC Latino Cultural Center
Join us as UIC postdoctoral scholars share their experiences and respective research with the UIC community. Through an intersectional lens, these scholars reveal the complexity and specificity of their contemporary research and how the lives of those in the margins are impacted.
Dr. Victor Florez-Garcia, from the Division of Epidemiology & Biostatistics, will present previous research on the impact of metal exposures on children's intellectual performance in Mexico. He will also discuss ongoing efforts to assess environmental exposures (POPs and Metals) in the United States. His research employs cutting-edge epidemiological methods to investigate the role of environmental pollutants in developing multiple chronic conditions.
