Environmental Epidemiology
The Environmental Epidemiology Service (EES) provides support and
information to the Office of Public Health and Environmental Hazards on
matters of epidemiology and health surveillance issues. EES conducts
centrally directed epidemiologic studies and other clinical support
activities in a manner consistent with the highest scientific standards
and in the most expedient and economically efficient way. EES conducts
health surveillance of Gulf War and Vietnam veterans and or other
veterans exposed to environmental hazards, i.e. phenoxyherbicides,
radiation exposure, cold injuries, etc. The Service also creates and
maintains unique databases which may lend themselves to research of
veterans and promote their use in collaboration with other interested
researchers. Information is regularly provided at appropriate forums and
to appropriate government officials, members of the public and the
Congress.
