Dr. Mark Wilson is interested exploring the intersection of human health outcomes and environmental exposures. He is a Certified Industrial Hygienist and is formally trained in Toxicology and human health risk assessment. The foundation of his research focuses on the reconstruction of exposure scenarios based on analytical results from environmental sampling. He has been involved in population-based environmental and toxicological evaluations related to chemical exposures in post-disaster situations (i.e. hurricanes and marine oil spills). His current work is focused on determining the magnitude and duration of chemical and physical agent exposures following WUI fires and the evaluation of the effectiveness of exposure mitigation strategies.
Chemical Insights Research Institute (CIRI) of Underwriters Laboratories Inc., a nonprofit organization, is dedicated to scientific research, publication, education, and communication on environmental exposures resulting from technologies and practices, their impact on human health and processes for reducing risks. CIRI provides actionable data and resources to help manufacturers, educators, healthcare providers, and consumers make informed environmental health decisions. Our work lets people around the world know what chemicals are in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the products we interact with every day. Our leadership role is to provide science or knowledge to implement improved practices, alternative product design, and changes that enable safer products and healthier environments.
