Outline of Research
Contributing to the reduction of risk to human health and ecosystems through the assessment and control of environmental risk
We carry out surveys and research aimed at clarifying the environmental risk posed by chemicals and understanding the pathways through which humans and wildlife are exposed to these chemicals - as well as their environmental fate. We then develop exposure assessment methodologies. In addition, we investigate the toxic mechanisms of chemicals and innovate in the methods for their assessment, in order to evaluate the impact of environmental exposure on human health and ecosystems.
