Nina Holland research group: http://ehs.sph.berkeley.edu/holland/
 
Dr. Holland's research interests:

• Children's environmental health
• Molecular epidemiology
• Human cytogenetics
• Reproductive toxicology

Ongoing projects:

Nina T. Holland, Ph.D., is an Adjunct Professor of Genetics and Toxicology, and a Director of the Biorepository at the School of Public Health, University of California, Berkeley. She graduated from the Novosibirsk State University, Russia, and received her Ph.D. in Genetics from the Institute of Molecular Biology and Genetics in Kiev, Ukraine. Since coming to Berkeley in 1991, Dr. Holland has been involved in several collaborative projects with National Cancer Institute, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute and University of California, San Francisco. Her scientific interests include human genetics, molecular epidemiology and reproductive toxicology. The main focus of her research in the last several years is on biomarker studies in Children's Environmental Health. Dr. Holland organized scientific sessions on Children's Environmental Health at the International Conference on Mutagens in Human Populations in Brazil, 2003 at the EMS meeting in Miami, 2003, and at 9h ICEM meeting in San Francisco, 2005. She has been an invited speaker at the numerous national and international meetings. Dr. Holland has published more than 100 papers and book chapters.
 
She is a principal instructor on the graduate courses "Molecular and Genetic Epidemiology", "Reproductive Toxicology of Industrial Chemicals" and EHS Masters Seminar, and contributed to several other courses at UC Berkeley. She has also taught and provided research assistance at the University of Hawaii, National Universities of Australia, Mexico and India. More information on research, teaching and other activities of Dr. Holland is available on her website http://ehs.sph.berkeley.edu/holland/.
