Magali Blanco is an environmental exposure scientist with additional training in epidemiology, biostatistics, and data science. Her current research interests are around air pollution exposure assessment, Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD), and social disparities. The focus of her recently funded diversity MOSAIC K99/R00 is to better understand the mechanisms by which air pollution may impact Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia (ADRD) neuropathologies. This research will leverage her training and interests in air pollution monitoring design, quantitative exposure assessment, environmental health, ADRD, exposure mixtures, and advanced epidemiology.
