Agenda

1 - 2 p.m. Presentations

- Dr. Greg Diette, Johns Hopkins University
Title: The Role of Indoor Allergens and Pollutants and Children's Asthma
Summary: Asthma is the most common chronic illness in children and it results in a significant number of asthma attacks affecting the child and their family. We will discuss the role of asthma attack triggers found indoors and what can be done about them.

- Dr. Rob McConnell, University of Southern California
Title: Air Pollution, Social and Psychosocial Stress, and Respiratory Health in the Southern California Children’s Health Study
Summary: Asthma and lung function in the Children’s Health Study are associated with near-roadway air pollution. Psychosocial stressors had synergistic effects with air pollution. Further research is needed to identify underlying reasons for these associations and potential avenues for prevention.

- Dr. Rachel Morello-Frosch, University of California, Berkeley
Title: Assessing the Combined Effects of Environmental and Social Stress: A Review of the Evidence and Implications for Research
Summary: The combined effects and potential interaction of environmental and social stress have been referred to as a form of “double jeopardy”. Evidence suggests that prenatal exposure to environmental chemicals can exert stronger adverse health effects in the presence of chronic stress. Future research is needed to better understand how stress can potentially impact the relationship between environmental pollutants and human health.


2 - 2:30 p.m. Discussion
-Moderated by Mark Miller, University of California, San Francisco
