Superfund Basic Research Program

           "Health Effects and Biodegradation of Complex Mixtures"

Administrative Core

Director Paul Bishop Paul.Bishop@UC.edu
Deputy Director Alvaro Puga Alvaro.Puga@UC.edu
Program Coordinator Elizabeth Kopras Elizabeth.Kopras@uc.edu

The central theme of this program is to investigate the mechanisms underlying the adverse health effects of exposure to complex mixtures of carcinogenic metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and the development of effective strategies for bioremediation of PAHs in metal-contaminated mixtures.

The Administration Core of the UC SBRP exists to foster integration and synergy within the program, provide an administrative structure to oversee the scientific and financial management of the program, oversee the use of the research support cores and facilities, and foster communication with related programs. 

UC SBRP is aided by an External Advisory Committee, which provides outside advice on the operation of the program.  The EAC members are:

  • Robert H. Tukey, University of California, San Diego

  • Henry H. Tabak, US EPA

  • John Loper, University of Cincinnati

  • Tracy Greeley-Adams, Cincinnati Public Schools

  • Hugh J. Campbell Jr., Dupont Specialty Chemicals

  • Randall P. Born, Cinergy
