Research Profile

Research aims at understanding the human health effects of exposure to complex mixtures of environmental pollutants with emphasis on estrogenic and antiestrogenic pollutants. Current studies focus on breast milk as a marker of exposure, effect, and breast cancer risk; signaling pathways in estrogen receptor-negative breast cancer and; and bioassays for detection of endocrine disruptors in water ways.

Research Profile

Research focuses on Energy and Environmental Economics and Policy, especially the impact of uncertainty on climate change emissions and technology policies. Current studies include collecting expert elicitations on energy technology R&D and evaluating the impact of energy R&D portfolios on greenhouse gas emissions and the environment. A new, interdisciplinary project focuses on developing metrics for sustainability for the Pioneer Valley region, and developing a decision support system that relates electricity generation decisions to sustainability metrics, including uncertainty.
