Kathryn | Fiorella | Public Health | Understanding fish consumption and fishing effort | 2020 | Fall | PI | Cornell College of Veterinary Medicine | CCSS Grant | |
Kathryn | Fiorella | Public and Ecosystem Health | In recent decades, aquatic ecosystems worldwide have experienced an unprecedented frequency, scale, and duration of harmful algal blooms. Cyanobacteria-producing harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) produce microcystins, a family of potent liver toxins. Despite increasing cyanoHABs globally, understanding of environmental and occupational exposures are limited. Our long-term goal is to elucidate the human health impacts of multiple exposure pathways of cyanoHABs. The objective of this application is to analyze levels of microcystins exposure in highly vulnerable populations around Kenya's Lake Victoria, where water, fish, and aerosol exposure are likely. |
