  • Heavy industry and the effects of environmental degradation are often focused on at-risk communities. This webinar reviews how one community has responded by partnering with local medical personnel and state university-based researchers to provide objective data of these impacts, which may ultimately aid in accountability.

    Learning Objectives:

    1. Understand the study aims and objectives.
    2. Review why setting SMART goals is necessary for study success.
    3. Identify ways in which local community members can play an important role in scientific studies such as this one.
