Philip J. Landrigan '63, MD, MSc, DIH, FAAP, FACPM, FACOEM is a pediatrician and epidemiologist who directs the Program for Global Public Health and the Common Good and the Global Observatory on Pollution and Health at Boston College.

For four decades, Landrigan has undertaken research elucidating connections between the environment and human health and translated this research into policies and programs to safeguard health and prevent disease. Children鈥檚 environmental health, occupational health, neurodevelopmental toxicity, and global environmental health have been major, linked foci in his research.

Landrigan鈥檚 career began at CDC in the 1970鈥檚 with investigations of lead poisoning in children living near ore smelters. These studies were among the first to show that airborne lead from industrial facilities can cause childhood lead poisoning and were among the first studies also to document subclinical neurotoxicity with IQ loss and shortened attention span in asymptomatic children with increased lead exposure. They led to Landrigan鈥檚 becoming centrally involved in the decision to remove lead from gasoline, an action that reduced childhood lead poisoning in the USA by 95% and resulted in a nearly 5-point gain in the mean IQ of all American children born since 1980.

Landrigan has studied the neurodevelopmental toxicity of pesticides. From 1988-1993 he chaired a congressionally mandated Committee at the US National Academy of Sciences on Pesticides in the Diets of Infants and Children. This Committee documented children鈥檚 exquisite sensitivity to pesticides and other toxic chemicals and catalyzed fundamental revision of US pesticide law to protect children鈥檚 health.

During his 33 years at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai in New York, where he served as Chairman of Preventive Medicine and Dean for Global health, Landrigan oversaw the medical and epidemiologic follow-up of 22,000 9/11 first responders - firefighters, police officers, paramedics, construction workers, and volunteers 鈥� who served at the site of the World Trade Center Disaster of September 11, 2001. These ongoing, prospective studies have documented a more than 40% prevalence of abnormal lung function in previously healthy responders and a high frequency of mental health problems.

To address the rapidly growing but neglected problem of toxic environmental exposures in low- and middle-income countries, Landrigan and colleagues formed The Lancet Commission on Pollution and Health. This Commission鈥檚 2018 report documented the enormous global burden of disease and death caused by pollution. It presented new data on pollution鈥檚 great economic costs; highlighted the links between pollution, poverty and injustice; and concluded that pollution prevention is highly feasible, will advance attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals and will help mitigate global climate change.

From 1995 to 1997, Dr. Landrigan served on the Presidential Advisory Committee on Gulf War Veteran's Illnesses.

In 1997-1998, he served as Senior Advisor on Children's Health to the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency where he was instrumental in launching EPA鈥檚 Office of Children's Health Protection.

Dr. Landrigan served from 1996 to 2005 in the Medical Corps of the United States Navy. He retired in 2005 at the rank of Captain (O-6). He served in Korea and Ghana and was Officer-in-Charge of the West Africa Training Cruise, a medical humanitarian mission to Senegal that in 2004 saw more than 11,000 patients. He was awarded the Navy Commendation Medal (3 awards), the National Defense Service Medal and the Secretary of Defense Medal for Outstanding Public Service.

Dr. Philip Landrigan graduated from Boston Latin School (1959), Boston College (1963), Harvard Medical School (1967) and the London School of Tropical Medicine & Hygiene, University of London (1977). He completed a residency in pediatrics at Children鈥檚 Hospital Boston. He trained in epidemiology at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and served for 15 years as a CDC epidemiologist with extended overseas tours in Nigeria and El Salvador. He serves as President of the Collegium Ramazzini, an international society comprised of specialists in occupational and environmental medicine. In 1987, he was elected to the US National Academy of Medicine.
