Rebecca Sugrue, PhD

Dr. Rebecca Sugrue is a postdoctoral scholar working on our PROTECT study. She completed her PhD in environmental engineering at the University of California, Berkeley where she researched low-cost methods for the monitoring and mitigation of diesel particulate matter in environmental justice communities in California. She is interested in improving our estimates of wildfire smoke pollution and the related disparities of the exposure-response relationship for most short-term health outcomes of concern, including respiratory and cardiovascular conditions.
