SUMMARY:It's getting hot in here: Climate & Health Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:“What’s in our water? Geospatial modeling of forever chemicals in drinking water systems to study cancer outcomes”\nHari S. Iyer\, ScD\, MPH\nAssistant Professor\, Rutgers Cancer Institute\nDirector\, Geospatial Data Hub\, Rutgers Center for Climate\, Health and Health Care \nPer- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a major source of water contamination in New Jersey and other US states. These chemicals have been called “forever chemicals” due to their persistence in the environment and human bodies\, and have been linked to multiple health risks\, including  certain cancers. In this seminar\, I will show how geospatial analysis can help produce historical reconstructions of PFAS contamination in New Jersey Drinking Water Systems. I Specific data sources used to characterize potential sources of drinking water exposure in relation to residential areas will be discussed. I will present preliminary results of model fit and epidemiologic studies of forever chemical exposures and prostate cancer outcomes. \nHybrid seminar held at IFH in the 5th Floor Conference Room and via Zoom. \nRegister in advance for this meeting: https://rutgers.zoom.us/meeting/register/BaJ4wDpKTBezMcsqoytUAg
