Paul D. Blanc, M.D.
Professor Medicine; Division Chief, Occupational Medicine

Research Interests:
Epidemiology of occupational lung disease, Asthma outcomes and Occupational toxicology

Summary:
Dr. Blanc's research program focuses on the epidemiology and toxicology of the pulmonary system. The research is comprised of two principal components: first, the longitudinal study of adults with asthma, examining outcomes of disease with emphasis on interactions between workplace exposures and disease severity and second, epidemiologic, population-based and controlled human exposure studies of acute chemical exposure effects. The research has been supported by a Research Career Development Award from the National heart Lung and Blood Institute and independent research grants from the NIH, CDC, American Lung Association, and the UC Tobacco-Related Diseases research Program.
