Children's Health and the Environment
(3-0-0)
The course addresses growing evidence on early life environmental exposures (biological, physical, chemical and social) as crucial determinants of childhood and adult conditions like impaired development, asthma, or cancer. Despite the growing interest in potential health risks of environmental concerns in Canada, there are insufficient training opportunities for Children, Health and the Environment. The interdisciplinary nature of this course aims to attract students from multiple disciplines to fulfill the need for formal training around a current topic with increasing demands and public awareness.
