Professor, graduated from Peking University. Her research areas are atmospheric environmental chemistry and environmental health. Now, she is the PI of Environmental Exposure and Molecular Biology at the State Key Laboratory of Environmental Criteria and Risk, Chinese Academy of Environmental Sciences. The main researches now are on the mechanisms of health effects and health risks of environmental pollutants using environmental monitoring, cellular models, animal models, epidemiological investigations, molecular biology and other methods.
Ph.D, Associate Professor of State Key Laboratory of Environmental Criteria and Risk Assessment, Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Sciences. In recent years, he has been engaged in research on the effects of environmental pollution on health.
Master, Assistant professor. Research directions are (1) the impacts of the association between environmental pollution and human health effects, (2) study on the system of air quality criteria and standards.
Associate researcher. Graduated from the medical department of Peking University, majoring in environmental health research. He is a core member of the PI group of the State Key Laboratory of the Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Science.
Assistant Professor, graduated from School of Public Health, Peking University and currently a postdoc in the State Key Laboratory of Environmental Criteria and Risk Assessment, Chinese Academy of Environmental Sciences. In recent years, she has been engaged in research on the effects of environmental pollution on health by using environmental chemistry, epidemiology, biology.
Yixuan Zheng, Ph.D., is an associate professor at the Institute of Atmospheric Environment, Chinese Academy of Environmental Planning (CAEP). His research interests lie in understanding the socioeconomic and policy drivers of air pollution and the associated public health and climate impacts. He currently focuses on applying numerical models to inform and support China’s environmental policymaking regarding air pollution control and climate change mitigation.
Wang Xuying, Ph.D. Engaged in air pollution control, emission inventory development, synergetic control of pollution and carbon reduction, etc. Participated in the research and formulation of a number of important national technical documents on air pollution prevention and control, and provided technical support for atmospheric environment management, pollution reduction and carbon reduction synergy and other related decision-making work.
Research director at CICERO with core expertise on the distribution and processing of aerosols and trace gases in the atmosphere and the climate impact of different human activities. Performs the simulations with OsloCTM3 and emission metrics calculations in ChiNorBC.
Shilpa Rao is a senior scientist at the Department of Air Quality and Noise at the Norwegian Institute for Public Health. She specializes in using epidemiological methods to examine the effects of air quality and climate change on human health and assessing future health impacts. In this project, she is primarily involved in Output 4 and 5 on summarizing the effects of BC and particulate matter on health and understanding future impacts across different scenarios in the project.
Senior Scientist at Department of Air Quality and Noise, Norwegian Institute of Public Health with extensive expertise on health effects of air pollution. The involvement in ChiNorBC have been in Output 4 and mainly in the activity 4.6. We have exposed advanced lung cell co-cultures with reference particles. The toxic and inflammatory responses are compared with responses using particles samples from China.
Senior scientist at the Cluster of Global Health, Norwegian Institute of Public Health. Expertise in health effects of environmental factors in the fields of toxicology and epidemiology. Senior advisor for Norwegian authorities and the WHO.
Researcher director at CICERO with extensive expertise on the benefits to human health from reducing emission of air pollution and mitigating global warming. Involved in health impact assessment of ChiNorBC.
