Many occupational and environmental exposures have been implicated in the development of chronic respiratory diseases, an important cause of morbidity and mortality. Exposure assessment, biomarker development, impact of mixed exposures, modeling, and pathophysiologic mechanisms including gene­environment interactions need the attention of the research community.
