Dr. Nan Lin is an expert in the field of environmental exposure and health. Her research focuses on the environmental behavior and health effects of human exposure to pollutants. By integrating methodologies from environmental chemistry, geography, and epidemiology, she aims to quantitatively trace the migration, transformation, and accumulation of pollutants across environmental media and into the human body. Her work further assesses the associated health impacts and environmental burdens to simulate and forecast the evolution of health risks at regional and global scales. Her research is applied to contemporary problems including indoor air pollution, emerging contaminants such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), including 1,4-dioxane, and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
Dr. Lin has published 50 peer-reviewed articles in high-impact journals including Environmental Health Perspectives and Environmental Science & Technology. She has led several research projects supported by national and international programs as PI, including the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the Ministry of Science and Technology of China, and the US CDC PPRT program. She currently serves as a committee member of the Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) Committee of the Chinese Society for Environmental Sciences, and a (early career) editorial board member for several journals including Eco-Environment & Health, Journal of Environmental Exposure Assessment.
