Description

This course is comprised of four modules, which are described in the following phrases.  Module 1, will review the history of tobacco/nicotine use, and why its consumption is hazardous.  Module 2 will review behavioral and public health challenges related to tobacco/nicotine use. Module 3 will be dedicated to the study of electronic nicotine delivery systems (ENDS).  Finally, Module 4 will discuss how different disciplines address these issues.  The course will employ a combination of learner-centered and teacher-led strategies, involving individual and group work. Evaluation will be based on quizzes at the end of each of the module.

Dr. Fernando A. Wagner is a professor at the University of Maryland School of Social Work. He isinterested in the development of methods, knowledge, and community-based participatory interventions promoting wellness and public mental health, and has led research in the U.S. and Mexico for over 40 years. Dr. Wagner earned his Master of Public Health and Doctor of Science degrees from the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, where he also completed a year of postdoctoral training in psychiatric epidemiology. Dr. Wagner served as Principal Investigator of a Community-Based Participatory Research initiative for tobacco control in underserved communities branded through community input as CEASE (Communities Engaged and Advocating for Smoke-free Environments), which developed a successful intervention to help residents of very low-income communities quit smoking, along with other initiatives engaging youth in prevention and advocacy efforts.  CEASE tripled the success rate of the smoking cessation intervention and multiplied by a factor of 12 the annual number of participants recruited for smoking cessation programs in the community.

My main research goal is the development and evaluation of novel sampling and analysis strategies for the assessment of exposure to biological aerosols, e-cigarette aerosols, and particulate matter. I have worked toward this goal both doing field research as well as laboratory-based controlled studies. The field work has provided tools for understanding the impact of agribusiness in the environment and health of the population, especially how the public is exposed to biological aerosols. These biological agents, in turn, can be vectors of antibiotic resistance, which is emerging as a public health concern to the public in general, but particularly to healthcare and food industry workers, as well as communities living in agricultural settings. My work with electronic cigarettes has established that these devices are important sources of metal exposure. Working closely with epidemiologists, microbiologists and aerosol physicists, we have developed a partnership for the application of air sampling strategies to the detection of aerosols through novel analysis techniques. However, field research requires the support of well controlled laboratory studies in order to characterize new and existing methods, and to develop novel techniques and applications for such methods that can later in turn be applied in field studies. My laboratory work has provided insights into bacterial aerosol viability and the application of analysis techniques traditionally used for water samples. I am currently interested in understanding the scale of exposure to electronic cigarette aerosol, as well as applying air sampling techniques to recognize the scale and evaluate the complexity involved in the assessment of exposure to viruses in agricultural as well as Nosocomial environments.
 

A second objective of my work is the development of new instrumentation and strategies for the collection of bulk particulate matter that can be used in analytical and toxicological studies. This work involves the study of aerosol particles in close collaboration with chemists and aerosol physicists to advance the development of strategies for improved particle sampling and detailed laboratory characterization.
