This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program provides $419,011 to Emory University to develop innovative dimensionality reduction techniques for assessing the joint health effects of air pollution mixtures.

The research aims to advance causal modeling approaches that preserve the relationships between air pollutants and health outcomes, in order to provide more accurate assessments of the public health impacts of complex air pollution exposures. The work will leverage a comprehensive dataset of emergency department visits in Atlanta spanning over two decades to examine short-term effects of criteria pollutants, fine particulates, and volatile organic compounds. The insights gained are intended to inform public health interventions, enhance air quality standards, and support evidence-based policy decisions. The award period runs from September 2024 through August 2026.
