Jane Hoppin
Bio
Dr. Hoppin is an environmental epidemiologist whose research focuses on understanding the impacts of chemical exposures on impacted communities. She currently has on-going research in Costa Rica evaluating the human health impacts of pesticides on women and children. In North Carolina, she is the principal investigator of the GenX Exposure Study (genxstudy.ncsu.edu), a prospective cohort study focusing on PFAS (per and poly fluoroalkyl substances) exposures from drinking water among people living in the Cape Fear River Basin.
