EHSRC Director, Dr. Hans-Joachim Lehmler, delivered the 2024 UI College of Public Health Distinguished Faculty Lecture. Dr. Lehmler’s lecture, “A Persistent Problem: PCB Exposure and Adverse Health Effects,” addressed ongoing research on the mechanisms by which polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) negatively impact human health. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for developing targeted strategies to protect vulnerable populations, such as children and pregnant women, from the harmful effects of PCB exposure.
