What happens when science and policy collide — and how can we prepare for the environmental health challenges ahead? In part two of our series with Dr. Peter Thorne, University of Iowa Distinguished Chair and Professor of Occupational and Environmental Health, we dig into persistent pollutants, climate change, and the future of science-informed policymaking. In this episode, you’ll learn about: • The risks of PCBs, PFAS, and other “forever chemicals” • How communities weigh costs and health risks in decisions like school renovations • The challenges of science advisory boards in an era of political polarization • Climate-related disasters — from wildfires to hurricanes — and their health consequences • Why better science communication and stronger policy action are urgently needed This conversation shows how today’s public health challenges extend beyond the lab, into policy decisions that will shape the lives of future generations.

In this two-part interview, Dr. Peter Thorne, University of Iowa Distinguished Chair and Professor of Occupational and Environmental Health and a leading expert in toxicology, provides an in-depth overview of how the federal government regulates chemicals in food, water, and air. Key points: • The EPA and FDA are science-based organizations that interpret laws passed by Congress and apply the best available science to make regulatory decisions aimed at protecting human health and the environment. • The EPA's Science Advisory Board provides independent, non-partisan oversight to ensure the agency's decisions are grounded in scientific evidence. • Chemical regulations are dynamic, with compounds like Red Dye No. 3 and inorganic arsenic being re-evaluated as new scientific data emerges. • The precautionary principle guides regulators to err on the side of safety when the evidence suggests a chemical may pose health risks, even in the absence of definitive human studies. • Replacing problematic chemicals with safer alternatives can facilitate regulatory action, though the availability of substitutes should not be the primary driver of these decisions. • Persistent organic pollutants like PCBs and PFAS pose complex public health challenges due to their ubiquity and long-lasting environmental presence, underscoring the need for continued research and policy responses.

This episode discusses physical activity and its role in preventing chronic disease, featuring an interview with Dr. Lucas Carr, an associate professor of Health and Human Physiology at the University of Iowa and leading researcher in lifestyle interventions and health behavior change. Key points include: Dr. Carr's research focuses on the behavior science behind habit formation and helping people find enjoyable, sustainable ways to be physically active as a means of prevention. His team has implemented a system to treat physical activity as a "vital sign" in healthcare settings, screening patients and connecting inactive individuals with free health coaching resources. Data from over 60,000 patients shows those who are physically active (150 minutes per week of moderate-to-vigorous activity) have significantly lower risks of 19 different chronic health conditions. Practical advice is to find physical activities you genuinely enjoy, as you're more likely to stick to something you find pleasant and rewarding.

Lauren welcomes Gulrukh Mehboob for a discussion about the impacts of relaxed staff training and licensing requirements on nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic. Gul is a Fulbright PhD scholar at the University of Iowa College of Public Health, studying health workforce policy, particularly in long-term care settings. • Between March 2020 and September 2021, 19 states reduced CNA training and licensing requirements in an effort to address staffing shortages in nursing homes. • Gulrukh's study found that these policy changes did not improve CNA staffing levels in nursing homes, even though some scholars had argued that strict training and licensing requirements were a barrier to entering the field. • Gulrukh suggests that improving wages, benefits, and working conditions for CNAs may be more effective than reducing training and licensing requirements for addressing staffing shortages in nursing homes. • Her future research will explore the impact of other workforce policies, such as incentive-based programs and wage increases, on staffing and quality of care in nursing homes.

Humility is an important trait for leaders to cultivate, as it allows them to learn from mistakes and support their team members. Successful leaders often serve as role models by openly acknowledging their own shortcomings. In both sports and medicine, the ability to foster a strong team culture and recognize the value of all team members, including support staff, is crucial for building resilient and high-performing organizations. For students and young professionals, the advice is to prioritize finding the right mentors and teams over short-term financial incentives, as the opportunities for growth and learning will be more valuable in the long run.

In this episode, Lauren welcomes a very special guest; Dr. Jim Yong Kim, partner, vice chairman, and Global Infrastructure Partners (a part of BlackRock) emerging markets chairman as well as former President of the World Bank Group and director of the World Health Organization’s HIV/AIDS department. Dr. Kim's background growing up in Iowa with Korean immigrant parents shaped his practical and moral approach to tackling complex global challenges. His dual MD-PhD training in medicine and anthropology allowed him to bridge the social sciences and practical applications, leading him to co-found the groundbreaking organization Partners in Health. At Partners in Health, Dr. Kim emphasized the importance of accompaniment and community health workers in providing equitable, effective care for the world's poorest populations. After serving as President of Dartmouth College, Dr. Kim was nominated by President Obama to lead the World Bank, where he applied his on-the-ground experience and commitment to moral leadership. Dr. Kim emphasizes the value of lifelong learning, humility, and learning from others as key aspects of effective leadership.

This is part 2 of Lauren's conversation with Dr. Wang about his work in atmospheric science and implications for public health. Dr. Jun Wang's lab at the University of Iowa is developing innovative technologies for satellite remote sensing and low-cost environmental sensors to better understand and combat challenges like wildfires, air quality, and climate change. The satellite remote sensing allows them to extract 3D information about smoke layers and fire lines, providing critical data to predict air quality and support firefighting efforts. The low-cost "iCanopy" and "iAir" sensors measure air and soil conditions at a neighborhood scale, helping to address environmental justice issues and inform decision-makers about resource allocation. Dr. Wang's lab is leading an interdisciplinary project to study how severe weather and climate change are affecting rural communities, using sensor networks to collect high-resolution data and make it accessible to local citizens. The research aims to provide tangible, data-driven solutions to help rural communities better prepare for and adapt to the impacts of a changing climate.

This two-part episode of the "Plugged In to Public Health" podcast features an interview with Dr. Jun Wang, an accomplished scientist and professor in the field of atmospheric sciences at the University of Iowa. Dr. Wang grew up in a rural community in eastern China, where he developed a fascination with weather and climate from a young age. He was inspired by observing the daily changes in weather and its impacts on agriculture in his hometown. After completing his bachelor's degree in atmospheric science in China, Dr. Wang pursued a master's degree and then a Ph.D. in the United States, where he specialized in satellite remote sensing and atmospheric chemistry. Dr. Wang's research combines satellite data and chemistry transport models to investigate critical topics such as air quality, wildfires, and the interactions between aerosols, clouds, and the land-atmosphere system. He has contributed to 10 satellite missions and holds numerous prestigious awards and accolades. In the interview, Dr. Wang discusses the collaborative, interdisciplinary nature of atmospheric research, as it intersects with fields like public health, agriculture, and renewable energy. He also provides insights into the accuracy and challenges of numerical weather prediction models. The second part of the interview will explore Dr. Wang's latest research projects, the future of remote sensing, and the next big challenges in atmospheric science.
