Dirty Air Tied to Raised Risk of Strokes, Shorter Lives

Longjian Liu, MD, PhD, an associate professor in the Dornsife School of Public Health, was quoted in a  Jan. 31 U.S. News & World Report story about his research that found people who live and work in counties with air pollution are more likely to die from a stroke. KPLC-TV (NBC-Lake Charles, Louisiana), and dozens of news media across the country, also reported the story.
