Environmental disasters, including floods and large chemical releases, harm populations in unpredictable and long-lasting ways, with marginalized populations often suffering the most. In my work, I partner with communities to understand how disasters affect acute and chronic health and to generate the evidence base to inform policies and solutions.

Dr. Arbor Quist is an environmental epidemiologist with a focus on disasters and industrial pollution. In her recent work, she has partnered with communities to understand how odors, oil and gas extraction, and industrial animal operations affect health. Arbor also studies climate-related disasters, including hurricanes, flooding and oil spills. Her research examines how environmental disasters redistribute contaminants and exacerbate health inequities. Arbor seeks to conduct community-engaged research that addresses climate and environmental injustice.
