DESCRIPTION:EHS Candidate Visit | Dr. Jagadeesh Puvvula: Presentation and Q
 &A "Life-Course Exposure to Environmental Hazards and Adverse Neurodevelop
 mental Outcomes"\n\nDr. Jagadeesh Puvvula is an environmental epidemiologi
 st who evaluates mechanistic associations between life-course environmenta
 l exposures and birth/neurodevelopmental outcomes. He primarily works on e
 xposures to endocrine-disrupting chemical mixtures\, notably phthalates\, 
 polybrominated diphenyl ethers\, and organophosphate esters. At FIU – EH
 S\, he envisions building a research program focused on the environmental 
 exposome and precision environmental health.In his presentation\, Dr. Puvv
 ula will discuss his research on environmental exposures and early-life ou
 tcomes. His work spans a broad range of environmental exposures\, from sat
 ellite-derived air pollutants to environmental chemical biomarkers. These 
 exposures include air pollutants (PAHs and toxic metals)\, forever chemica
 ls (PFAS)\, flame retardants (PBDEs and OPEs)\, industrial chemicals (PCBs
 )\, chemicals found in consumer products (phthalates\, phenols\, and parab
 ens)\, and pesticides (organochlorines and organophosphates). He uses biol
 ogical intermediates—including the epigenome\, transcriptome\, proteome\
 , metabolome\, and imaging markers—to investigate the biological mechani
 sms underlying exposure-response associations. He is also expanding his re
 search to incorporate single-nucleus approaches to better understand these
  mechanisms at the cellular level. Dr. Puvvula envisions FIU-EHS as an ide
 al environment in which to build an independent\, extramurally funded rese
 arch program integrating the external exposome\, chemical biomarkers\, and
  multi-omic intermediates within a precision environmental health framewor
 k\, while fostering collaborations across epidemiology\, biostatistics\, a
 nd molecular biology.\n\nNeed an accommodation or accessible materials? Co
