Background: Fish are an important part of a well-balanced diet as it contains high quality proteins, as well as polyunsaturated fatty acids that are known to play an important role in human health. Consumption of fish, however, is the primary route of exposure to methylmercury in humans. A quantitative risk-benefit...
The relative influences of trans-Pacific and regional atmospheric transport on measured concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), PAH derivatives [Nitro- (NPAH) and Oxy-(OPAH)], organic carbon (OC), and Particulate Matter (PM) less than 2.5 μm in diameter (PM₂.₅) were investigated in the Pacific Northwest, USA in 2010-2011. Ambient high volume PM₂.₅...

Although it is known that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) can be found in smoked meats, little is known about their prevalence in Native American smoked fish. In this work, the effect of traditional Native American fish smoking methods on dietary exposure to PAHs and possible risks to human health has...

Indigenous cultures perceive the natural environment as an essential link between traditional cultural
practices, social connectedness, identity, and health. Many tribal communities face substantial health
disparities related to exposure to environmental hazards. Our study used qualitative methods to better
understand the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation (CTUIR) members’...
Background: When conducting research with American Indian tribes, informed consent beyond conventional institutional review board (IRB) review is needed because of the potential for adverse consequences at a community or governmental level that are unrecognized by academic researchers. Objectives: In this article, we review sovereignty, research ethics, and data-sharing considerations...
