MORTON LIPPMANN, PHD, earned a Bachelor of Chemical Engineering at Cooper Union, an MS in Industrial Hygiene at Harvard School of Public Health, and a PhD in Environmental Health Science at New York University (NYU) School of Engineering. He is currently a professor of Environmental Medicine at NYU School of Medicine. He has spent his adult life researching the health effects of particulate matter (PM) in ambient air on public health. He has published over 370 research papers and two reference texts on environmental health science.
GEORGE D. LEIKAUF earned his A.B at the University of California, Berkeley, his Ph.D. in environmental health science at New York University, and finished his postdoctoral training at CVRI-University of California, San Francisco. Throughout his career, he has developed several in vitro approaches to the study of pulmonary epithelial, cellular, and molecular responses to toxicants. Currently, he is a professor of Environmental and Occupational Health at the University of Pittsburgh, Graduate School of Public Health.
