MRC-HPA Centre for Environment and Health
Professor Paul Elliott
Director of the MRC-HPA Centre for Environment and Health
The goal of the Centre is to create an internationally recognised centre of excellence for research and training on the health effects of environmental pollutants, and to use this knowledge to inform national and international policies to improve public health.
Combining data on populations and the areas in which they live at the individual level, in well-defined small areas, and comparing these to a range of environmental exposures and different health outcomes, the Centre will identify those small risks that may be associated with chemicals and other toxic factors in the environment, to quantify the individual and combined effects of these “mixtures”, and to study people’s susceptibility to disease in exposed areas.
