Description:
"Exploring the mechanisms of the cardiovascular health effects of air pollution"
Air pollution is known to cause cardiovascular disease (CVD), however, the exact mechanisms by which this occurs remain unclear. Using data from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis and its ancillary studies, I will provide evidence related to two hypothesized pathways linking air pollution to CVD, inflammation and activation of the sympathetic nervous system.
