The Center was established in 1987 and now has approximately 70 members from 23
departments within Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey and the
University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey. Regionally, the
Center serves New Jersey, the most densely populated and perhaps the
most heavily polluted state in the nation. Nationally, our members serve
as advisors to state and local officials, and citizen groups on issues
of pollution and consequent disease, environmental health education and
disease prevention.
The Center is under the Directorship of Dr. Helmut Zarbl, with Dr.
Debra Laskin as Deputy Director. Amy Monaco, MPH is the Center
Administrator and Betty Davis is the Business Manager. |
