Our Mission

The University of Florida has extensive resources addressing various aspects of the environment. The Department of Environmental and Global Health is in a unique position to bring these resources together to improve human health. In collaboration with the Emerging Pathogens Institute, the Department aims to incorporate 1) other mathematical modeling approaches to predict disease risk; 2) assess environment/gene interactions at a community level; 3) evaluate the health impact of anthropogenic environmental change, including global climate change; and 4) develop policy responses to minimize risk from emerging and re-emerging biological threats.

About EGH

The Department of Environmental and Global Health is a hub of collaboration among University of Florida scientists who are interested in the effects of factors in the environment on human health. Factors in the air, soil, and water that threaten health are rarely contained within artificially drawn political borders. Thus environmental health is global and it is our goal to explore and examine its global dimensions fully. The Department collaborates extensively with the Center for Environmental and Human Toxicology (CEHT), the Emerging Pathogens Institute (EPI), and the Whitney Laboratory for Marine Bioscience.
