and was professor of environmental health at Colorado State University. He has worked to develop biologically realistic models of the uptake, distribution, metabolism, and biologic effects of drugs and toxic chemicals and has applied these physiologically based pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic models to safety assessments and quantitative health risk assessments.

Her primary research interests include human genome variation, DNA damage repair, and the use of genomewide approaches to study the genetic basis of human phenotypes and traits. Her research techniques include genomic-mismatch scanning, sequence-mismatch detection, physical mapping, molecular fingerprinting, DNA microarrays, fluorescent image analysis, and developing genome databases.

In his NTP role, Dr Lucier was responsible for coordinating toxicologic research and testing across federal agencies including EPA, the FDA and the NIOSH. His research focused on the use of basic biology to reduce uncertainty in human risk assessments and to improve the tools used in exposure assessment.

More recently, his interests have included global receptor biology, improving the predictivity of investigative techniques used at early stages of product development, the technology and application of custom microarray toxicogenomics platforms, and the application of state-of-the-art molecular profiling techniques to research and investigative toxicology. He chairs the International Life Sciences Institute/Health and Environmental Sciences Institute (ILSI/HESI)
