Join us at the 2018 Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health Networking Luncheon!  We are excited to celebrate the accomplishments of Dr. Eskenazi’s 30-year career in research, teaching, and mentoring. Through her extensive research on the effects of social, nutritional, and environmental agents on human reproduction, and on child development from fetal through adolescence, she has dedicated her career to protecting the health of our most vulnerable populations.

For 20 years, Dr. Eskenazi has been the Director of UC Berkeley’s Center for Environmental Research and Children’s Health (CERCH). She has led several groundbreaking research endeavors at CERCH, including the CHAMACOS Study, the longest running longitudinal birth cohort study of pesticides and other environmental exposures among children in a farmworker community.

Dr. Eskenazi is an equally dedicated professor at the School of Public Health. Since 1985, she has taught dozens of courses and mentored hundreds of students in master and doctoral programs, and in postdoctoral training programs. Since 2002, she’s held the Maxwell Endowed Professorship of Maternal and Child Health and Epidemiology, an honor reflecting her commitment to teaching.

Dr. Eskenazi has many accolades to her name-- hundreds of publications and several prestigious awards--but perhaps her most notable impact is on the lives she has touched through her research, teaching, and mentoring.
