Heat exposure in two case studies using novel exposure assessment techniques including: measuring core-temperatures of participants, fitbits, and Photovoice to better understand feel and perception of heat!

[BUSPH Environmental Health @busphEH]

#ISES2022 Alert! Come check out the Methods in Heat Exposure Assessment in Community and Occupational Based Research Symposium at 11:30 to see recent graduate Dr. Zoe Petropoulos on the impacts of heat exposure in urban vs. rural communities! @MlsScammell
