Levi Decker investigates the comprehensive toxicological impacts of air pollution on human health, emphasizing respiratory and cardiovascular systems. His research explores the mechanisms by which pollutants like particulate matter, ozone, and nitrogen oxides contribute to diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and heart disease. Levi has developed advanced models to assess exposure levels and predict health outcomes related to air pollution. He has published extensively on the short-term and long-term health effects of various airborne toxins. As an editor, Levi provides guidelines for toxicologists and public health officials to study and mitigate the health risks associated with air pollution, promoting cleaner air and healthier populations through informed toxicological strategies.
