We are pleased to invite the campus community and colleagues to Wayne State University’s Integrative Environmental Health Sciences Seminar Series. The series is hosted by Wayne State’s CURES P30ES036084 Environmental Health Sciences Core Center and the CLEAR P42 Superfund Research Program.

Our next seminar will be held on November 7, 2024 from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. in the Integrative Biosciences Center (IBio), located at 6135 Woodward, room 1D. The seminar is also available via Zoom. Zoom details will be emailed to all registrants.

The guest speaker will be Steve Korzeniewski Ph.D., associate professor of emergency medicine, School of Medicine, Wayne State University. He will present, "The population Health Outcomes Information Exchange: Connecting Communities with Information to Pursue Lifespan Equality." 

Biography:

Dr. Korzeniewski’s research focuses broadly on the antecedents, correlates and consequences of early onset hypertension in socially vulnerable populations – particularly before or during pregnancy. With a diverse multidisciplinary research background, his specific training and expertise are in epidemiology, biostatistics and data visualization.

His graduate studies were supported by a pre-doctoral fellowship from the then nation’s only NICHD sponsored T-32 training program in perinatal epidemiology (T32 HD046477-01A1), and he was competitively selected for the NICHD/Canadian Institute for Health Research Summer Institute, before receiving additional post-doctoral training under the Pediatric Research LRP program (L40 HD077654R2). Dr. Korzeniewski joined the faculty of Wayne State’s Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in 2011, where for six years he conducted research as an associate investigator in the NICHD Intramural Research Program, then located in Detroit (NIH contract no. HHSN275201300006C).

Upon promotion to associate professor in 2017, Dr. Korzeniewski shifted focus from maternal-fetal medicine to reproductive endocrinology and infertility, which prompted related research interests outside of pregnancy in early onset hypertension and a move to Wayne State's Integrative Biosciences Center and the Department of Emergency Medicine to develop the PHOENIX Virtual Data Warehouse and Visualization platform in Google Cloud (phoenix.wayne.edu; IRB-22-02-4397).

Dr. Korzeniewski is currently project principal investigator and biostatistics core director for Wayne State’s NIMHD-supported P50 Center focused on improving cardiometabolic health in vulnerable populations (P50MD017351). He is also an active member of Wayne State’s P30 CURES Center for Urban Responses to Environmental Health Stressors (co-I; P30 ES036084), and he receives additional support from the EPA for ongoing research led by Wayne State’s Institute for Environmental Health Sciences (co-I; RD-84045901-0). Dr. Korzeniewski is also a member of the Global Pregnancy Collaboration (CoLab), and is an associate editor for Critical Assessments for the Journal, Perspectives in Biology and Medicine.
