Hi Sharon
I don’t know if you know much about our group here...............v. interested in environment and human health interface...
Have a look at our website.
http://www.ecehh.org/
I've been doing a lot of work around low level chronic exposure to environmental toxicants and chronic diseases such as asthma, CVD, cancer etc utilising large data sets.
We have been publishing on bis phenol a and have been using NHANES as an exploratory data set. Developing an interest in exposure to metals, as they are v. common in high concs. In Cornwall.
We have project around vitamin D and solar irradiance and health, , radon, housing and health, pollen and hospital admissions, and childhood exposures and behaviours that lead to adult disease.
My recent back ground has been in paediatric food allergy. I did my pHD on toxicology and epidemiology of harmful algae.
I’ve had a look at some of the proposed FP7 topics………..some seem too big, while others are beyond my areas of expertise…
Happy to discuss
Nick
