Daniel Brown
Dr. Dan Brown is Professor in the School of Natural Resources and Environment, and Director of the Environmental Spatial Analysis Laboratory at the University of Michigan. Dr. Brown's research interests focus on land use change and its effects on ecosystems and on human vulnerability. This work connects a computer-based simulation (e.g., agent-based modeling) of land-use-change processes with GIS and remote sensing based data on historical patterns of landscape change and social surveys. He is working to couple these models with GIS-based data and other models to evaluate consequences of change. He is also working to understand the ways in which land-use decisions are made. Collaborative research investigate the effects of spatial and social neighborhoods on the physical and social risks on human health.

Deliang Tang, DrPh
Dr. Deliang Tang's primary research interest is in predictive risk modeling for cancer, particularly focusing on genetic susceptibility and environmental exposures. This interdisciplinary research consists of the development and validation of susceptibility and exposure/effect biomarkers and the development of statistical risk models. He is currently analyzing genotypes in ongoing studies of breast cancer, lung cancer, and chemoprevention, assessing whether these genotypes are associated with disease and how genotype interacts with environmental exposures. Dr. Tang's modeling work includes possible gene-environmental interactions, gene-gene interactions and gene-disease associations. A major goal of his research, which includes creating new predictive risk models and further developing the model to deal with the mass quantities of genetic data that are expected from the "gene chip" technology, is early cancer detection, based on biomarker analysis.

Felipe Vadillo-Ortega, Dr.
Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (UNAM)
The area of my research interest is the adverse effects of air pollution on health. In particular, my area of expertise is analyzing the short-term effect of air pollution on mortality and morbidity by means of time series analysis. Other research interests include studying the mechanisms linking the inhalation of ambient particles to an acute exacerbation of cardiovascular or respiratory disease; the evaluation of the health effects of air pollution and temperature extremes; and socio-economic influences on health. I am also interested in developing innovative statistical methodologies in environmental epidemiology.
