Curriculum Vita
My current research interests are the determinants of physical activity particularly bicycling in populations, prevention of bicycling injuries, and occupational health issues of Latino workers. The bicycle-related research is my newer, developing research area. In contrast, my interest in occupational health dates back to my work in the 1980s and 1990s with non-profit organizations advocating for improved workplace health conditions in Wisconsin and North Carolina. My publications includes work documenting occupational health issues of Latino farmworkers, racial and ethnic disparities in work-related cancers and risk assessment research comparing cancer risks estimated from epidemiologic studies with risks estimated from animal bioassays. Please review my CV for a complete list of my publications.
I have taught epidemiology and environmental health to both MPH students and undergraduates for many years. Recently, I began teaching the research team practicum in our DRPH program. The four cornerstones of my teaching philosophy are,
- Treat students as I would like to be treated (with respect).
- As much as possible include participatory activities in my teaching because students learn by doing.
- Incorporate current research and my research into my teaching in order to share my passion for learning and introduce the latest thinking in the field to students.
- Teaching does not stop at the classroom door.
