SUMMARY:Measuring Microplastics - NYU Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The NYU Langone Center for the Investigation of Environmental Hazards (CIEH) will be holding a virtual symposium\, Measuring Microplastics\, on Friday\, July 12th and Wednesday\, July 31st from 8am to 12pm EST (NYC time). Microplastics\, together with chemicals used as additives or monomers\, are increasingly understood to have human health effects\, but exposure assessment methods are still in development. Across the two days we will hear from local\, national\, and international experts who will provide insight into the future of the field\, as plastic production and consumption continues to rapidly grow worldwide. Please see the links below to register and for more information \n\nFriday\, July 12 Symposium Registration: https://nyulangone.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_HcdQvlYURKyI9JglvDnNpg\nWednesday\, July 31 Symposium Registration: https://nyulangone.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_-1e2AE3kR3qm4SqJMoFGyw

SUMMARY:Toxic Chemicals and Children Presentation by Leonardo Trasande\, MD\, MPP
DESCRIPTION:This is a hybrid event and registration is Not required. \n\nIn Person:  CHOP’s Hope Auditorium.\nVirtual: Microsoft Teams. Video Conference ID: 117 337 923 4\n\n  \n About Leonardo Trasande\nLeonardo Trasande\, MD\, MPP is an internationally renowned leader in children’s environmental health.  His research focuses on identifying the role of environmental exposures in childhood obesity and cardiovascular risks\, and documenting the economic costs for policy makers of failing to prevent diseases of environmental origin in children proactively.  He also holds appointments in the Wagner School of Public Service and NYU’s College of Global Public Health. \nHe is perhaps best known for a series of studies published in Lancet Diabetes and Endocrinology and the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism that document disease costs due to endocrine disrupting chemicals in the US and Europe of $340 billion and €163 billion annually\, respectively. Dr. Trasande leads one of 35 centers across the country as part of the National Institute of Health’s Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes program.  He is leveraging the NYU Children’s Health and Environment Study as well as another birth cohort to examine phthalates\, bisphenols\, organophosphate pesticides and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their effects on fetal as well as postnatal growth and early cardiovascular and renal risks.  These two cohorts are part of a larger initiative nationally to identify preventable and environmental factors that influence child health and disease. \nHe is Principal Investigator on numerous other NIH-funded projects. These include a study on prenatal and childhood phthalate and bisphenol exposures in Generation R (a Dutch birth cohort) to examine obesity and cardiovascular risks\, as well as another project studying the effect of these dietary contaminants in children with chronic kidney disease\, with the hypothesis that these exposures create oxidant stress and accelerate disease progression. He is also Principal Investigator for a research project comparing neurodevelopment\, cardiometabolic and respiratory profiles of children exposed in utero to the World Trade Center disaster to a comparison group. H \ne has served as a member of numerous scientific committees and expert panels\, including: the American Academy of Pediatrics’ Executive Committee of the Council for Environmental Health; the Science and Technical Advisory Committee for the World Trade Center Health Program; the National Children’s Study Methodological Review Panel of the National Academy of Sciences; the United Nations Environment Programme Steering Committee on a Global Outlook for Chemicals; and the Board of Scientific Counselors for the National Center for Environmental Health at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). After receiving his bachelor\, medical and public policy degrees from Harvard\, he completed the Boston Combined Residency in Pediatrics and a legislative fellowship in the Office of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.  Prior to coming to NYU\, he completed fellowship training in environmental pediatrics.  For five years he also was a Lead Investigator in one of the original (Vanguard) locations of the National Children’s Study\, and Deputy Director for the largest (eight location) Study Center spanning a region from upstate New York to central New Jersey.

SUMMARY:Breathing Easier: Protecting Children With Asthma From Wildfire Smoke
DESCRIPTION:Asthma is a chronic respiratory condition affecting an estimated 26.8 million people in the United States\, including 4.5 million children. Children are particularly susceptible to wildfire smoke for several reasons: their respiratory systems are still developing; they breathe more air (and air pollution) per pound of body weight than adults; and they’re more likely to be active outdoors. \nThis webinar will explore the intersection of wildfire smoke exposure and childhood asthma. Expert speakers\, drawn from EPA’s National Environmental Leadership Award in Asthma Management winners and wildfire smoke grant program recipients\, will share best practices\, community-engagement strategies\, and innovative approaches to integrating wildfire smoke readiness into asthma control efforts\, protecting children’s respiratory health during wildfire smoke events and improving asthma health outcomes.
