WELCOME TO ENVIRONMENTAL AND MOLECULAR TOXICOLOGY
The integrated mission of the Department of Environmental & Molecular Toxicology (EMT) is to educate students in the toxicological sciences, to conduct research on the effects of chemicals and other agents on humans and the environment and to engage the public through extension and outreach. The EMT Department focuses on creating, disseminating, and applying new knowledge to enhance the treatment and prevention of human disease and to ensure the protection of the environment and public health.
Please Welcome Our New Associate Professor (Senior Research) Dr. Diana Rohlman!
Research Interests: I work as a community-engaged toxicologist, working with communities and organizations to ask and answer questions about the chemicals they may be exposed to. My research focuses on reporting back research results to community partners, to understand how they use toxicological information to make evidence-based decisions.
