The Research Division provides the highest quality scientific information in support of action to protect all Californians from the health and environmental effects of air pollution and climate change. The Health and Ecosystem Assessment Section provides scientific and technical support for the Board's efforts to achieve statewide air pollution and climate goals, including attainment of air quality standards. The Section Manager will work closely with staff to lead a high-profile project to expand analysis of health benefits of the board’s regulations, plans, and programs. The manager will develop and implement a workplan to achieve expanded health analysis, evaluate and interpret scientific information about acute and chronic health effects of air pollution and regulatory benefits, oversee environmental justice research and coordinate with internal and external stakeholders in all these tasks. The manager will solicit research to provide more comprehensive information on the health impacts of air pollution in all communities and support additional health outcomes in regulatory analysis. The Section’s work is collaborative in nature and requires teamwork both within the division and with other divisions, internal and external outreach, and big picture thinking. Additionally, as CARB has increased its efforts to achieve equity and reduce impacts in overburdened communities, our division and this section have a strong focus on supporting these goals.
