This is episode number 8, and today I’m interviewing capracare’s Board member and Jean Pierre-Louis’s former undergraduate professor, Dr. Jean Grassman. She is an industrial hygienist and environmental health scientist with over 25 years of experience. Her specialty includes studying the sources, detection, and impact of chemical exposure in vulnerable populations with an emphasis on biological monitoring approaches. Today she teaches biology-based public health courses to undergraduates at Brooklyn College. At the Graduate School of Public Health, she teaches courses in occupational health, emerging environmental issues, and environmental auditing and remediation. Dr. Grassman has been instrumental in numerous projects that have been deployed by her in Haiti. Nothing short of courageous, she is a remarkable person and a pleasure to interview. I hope you enjoy our conversation.
