application to TRDRP
1:00-1:20 Georg Matt - A longitudinal look at working with TRDRP
1:20-1:40 Eunha Hoh - TRDRP, SDSU, and the value of collaboration

About the Speakers:
*Norval Hickman, MPH, PhD*
In his role as program officer with TRDRP, Dr. Hickman has overseen a
growing research grant portfolio that includes tobacco-related,
community-based participatory research and clinical systems change projects
focused on reducing disparities and influencing tobacco control policy as a
social justice issue. He frequently presents to
community-based research and health care organizations the scientific
evidence on the impact of tobacco-related health disparities; psychological
correlates; and the social determinants of health
associated with tobacco marketing, use, and tobacco-related disease.

*Leslie Platz Bennett, JD*

Leslie Bennett is a pre-award proposal Development Specialist with the SDSU
Research Foundation. In her role, Leslie works closely with a diverse range
of SDSU faculty, including a number of current TRDRP funded PIs, throughout
the proposal development and pre-award process. She has been with SDSURF
for the past 4 years.

*Georg Matt, PhD*
Dr. Georg Matt is a Professor of Psychology at SDSU. Dr. Matt's program of
research examines multiple pathways of human exposure to tobacco smoke
toxicants and evaluates policies aimed at protecting nonsmokers from their
harmful effects. His research lab was among the first to examine how
microenvironments, such as private homes and cars, hotel rooms, and rental
cars, become contaminated with tobacco smoke pollutants (i.e., thirdhand
smoke), how nonsmokers are involuntarily exposed to these pollutants long
after a cigarette has been extinguished, and how to better protect
nonsmokers from involuntary exposure to the toxic legacy left behind by
tobacco smoke. A second line of research aims to improve the validity of
self-reports, especially retrospective quantitative estimates, by
developing measurement strategies that rely on cognitive models of
information processing (e.g., fuzzy set models).

*Eunha Hoh, PhD*
Dr. Eunha Hoh is a Professor of Environmental Health at the School of
Public Health. Dr. Hoh has developed novel analytical methods, which
include fast and efficient analyses of multiple classes of targeted
chemical residues and a non-targeted analytical approach for organic
compounds of interest in food and environmental samples. She was one of six
PIs of the Scripps Center for Oceans and Human Health. She is a Scientific
Guidance Panel member for the California Environmental Contaminant
Biomonitoring Program. As a member of the Thirdhand Smoke Research
Consortium, she also serves as a lead researcher with the Thirdhand Smoke
Resource Center.
