Environmental Health Science
Environmental Health Science focuses on the study of how environmental factors can impact human health. This field examines the effects of pollution, chemicals, radiation, and other environmental hazards on individuals and populations. Researchers in Environmental Health Science seek to understand the mechanisms by which these factors contribute to disease and develop strategies to prevent or mitigate their harmful effects. This interdisciplinary field draws on principles from biology, chemistry, toxicology, epidemiology, and other scientific disciplines to address complex environmental health challenges.
