My research focuses on environmental epidemiology, examining how environmental stressors—including air pollution, climate factors, and occupational exposures—affect health across the life course. I place particular emphasis on vulnerable populations, such as children, older adults, and pregnant women. By integrating advanced statistical methods with large-scale health databases and molecular biomarkers, I investigate both short- and long-term health effects and underlying biological mechanisms. My work adopts a multidisciplinary, life-course perspective to understand how environmental exposures influence metabolic and cardiometabolic health during critical developmental and aging windows. I further incorporate heterogeneous data analytics and real-time monitoring technologies to improve exposure assessment and identify early physiological responses. Through collaboration with the Multi-Country Multi-City Collaborative Research Network, I contribute Taiwan-based data to global climate and health research. Ultimately, my goal is to develop predictive indicators and mechanistic evidence that inform risk assessment, early prevention, and policy responses under a changing climate.
