Center for the Investigation of Environmental Hazards
NYU Langone’s Center for the Investigation of Environmental Hazards, or NYU CIEH, performs fundamental toxicologic and epidemiologic studies with strong focuses on heavy metals, air pollution, climate change, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals. That research is translated into policy and practice in order to detect, understand, and prevent environmental hazard–induced human diseases.
Our center sustains international leadership in exposure assessment of air pollution and heavy metals, a productive research portfolio in laboratory studies of heavy metal exposures, and a strong track record of innovative studies of the toxicologic effects of air pollutants. We have effectively translated research regarding the effects of environmental exposures to decision makers and communities, building on the model for translational research elaborated by the National Institute of Environmental Health (NIEHS).
