摘要

Developments in epidemiologic and statistical methods over the past two decades have enabled quantification of adverse effects of long-term exposure to ambient air pollution, and expert opinion now considers these effects to be causal. Based on this evidence ambient air pollution has now been estimated to be among the leading risk factors for global mortality from non-communicable disease, providing a firm foundation for policy action by national governments and international organizations such as WHO and World Bank. For over 25 years Dr. Richard Burnett of Health Canada has been in the forefront of these developments, playing a leading role in advancing statistical methods for air pollution epidemiology and policy analysis. The symposium highlights milestones in air pollution research to which Dr. Burnett has contributed, summarizing past work, current status and prospects for further progress, and acknowledging the role that public funding of scientific research and support of scientists in government plays in advancing public health. Following a brief introduction by session organizers highlighting Dr. Burnett's contributions, leading air pollution epidemiologists and collaborators of Dr. Burnett discuss research that has advanced epidemiologic knowledge. In conclusion, Dr. Burnett will comment briefly on the future of air pollution epidemiology.
