Clinical
Research
|
The
Center
conducts research with the aim of improving the
understanding of how air pollution affects healthy people and people
with lung diseases, such as asthma, chronic bronchitis and chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (special populations). Research is also
aimed at discovering dietary practices and medications that can
protect people from the unhealthy effects of air pollution.
 Research
studies
are
designed to test the effects of exposure to common
air pollutants, such as ozone and particulate matter or to test the
ability of dietary practices or medications to reduce the effects of
ozone and particulate matter on the lungs and heart.
The
Center is
seeking people who are interested in participating in its
studies. Because the studies often require multiple visits, we are
primarily interested in people who live within 50 miles of the Center.
If you are interested in participating in a study, additional
