Policy-relevant Epidemiologic Methods for Traffic-related Air Pollution & Infant Health

Determining to what extent regulations produce the promised health benefits is a critical public health goal. For instance, billions of dollars have been spent implementing regulations to reduce traffic-related air pollution (TRAP) from tailpipe emissions in the United States. However, few health studies have empirically evaluated the direct impact of TRAP reductions on population health. In this talk, Dr. Willis will discuss an ongoing accountability study to determine how different aspects of TRAP regulations have yielded improvements to infant health in Texas.
