Abstract

Keynote Lectures Wednesday, Beatrix Theater, August 28, 2019, 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM Following decades of research into respiratory and cardiovascular effects of air pollution, the past decade has seen exploding interest in the effects of air pollution on the brain. Epidemiological evidence has been growing for effects on outcomes across the lifespan such as neurodevelopment, mental health, and cognitive aging, and experimental evidence has demonstrated biological effects of air pollutants on the brain. Understanding how these effects interact with the biology of the brain can help us better understand the nature of the relation between air pollutants and neuropsychological function and help inform the epidemiological study of these relations.
