Description: Richard Woychik, Ph.D., NIEHS Director, who will also be introducing our speaker, Aaron Bernstein, M.D., M.P.H., of Boston Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. Bernstein's presentation will explain how climate and health research has emphasized population level associations over individual risks to explore how climate extremes matter to health. This has limited our ability to adapt to climate shocks, especially for populations that are vulnerable to the effects of climate change. This presentation will also highlight examples where a precision health approach to investigating climate actions effects on health can catalyze health-promoting climate mitigation and adaptation.
