Jeffrey S. Lee Lectureship 2011 Lecturer
Lecturer: Lisa M. Brosseau, ScD, CIH, Associate Professor, Division of Environmental Health Sciences, School of Public Health, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN Dr. Brosseau has conducted research and published in the areas of respiratory protection, aerosol exposures and health and safety interventions in small manufacturing businesses. Dr. Brosseau joined ACGIH® in 1985 and has been an active member since that time. She has been a member of the ACGIH® Board of Directors since 2009 and is currently serving as its Chair. She was a member of the ACGIH® Threshold Limit Values for Chemical Substances Committee from 1995-2006 and its Chair from 1998-2004.

Dr. Brosseau received the AIHA Alice Hamilton Award in 2006. A process in which bias is balanced and conflict of interest is minimized is the key to a successful scientific decision-making process for developing occupational exposure guidelines. In this lecture, Dr. Brosseau will describe the approach used by ACGIH® and its scientific guideline committees to ensure an independently-derived outcome that encompasses a wide range of scientific expertise and provides appropriate opportunities for external input. |
