Does exposure misclassification bias estimates of acute cardiovascular effects of traffic related air pollution? Hasselt University
This project tackles the problem of exposure misclassification in environmental epidemiology. Especially for spatially heterogeneous pollutants, like pollution from traffic, health estimates are biased when exposure is represented by surrogate measures. We will use data from a panel study consisting of 122 participants who wore sensing devices (i.e. a black carbon air pollution monitor, GPS, physical activity monitors) for three periods of seven ...
