Biography of Dr. Chameides:

Chameides received his Ph.D. from Yale University in 1974. After spending 30 years in academia, most recently as Regents Professor and Smithgall Chair at the Georgia Institute of Technology, Chameides joined Environmental Defense as their Chief Scientist in 2005.

 An atmospheric chemist, Chameides’ research focuses on global biogeochemical cycles, global change, and urban and regional-scale air pollution. Through the development and application of numerical algorithms and models as well as the design and implementation of multi-disciplinary research programs and field studies, he has endeavored to elucidate the coupled chemical, physical, and biological processes that shape our environment, and thereby help to identify pathways toward a sustainable future.

Dr. Chameides will be available for interviews throughout day on April 23rd and 24th.  Please contact Jim Coleman at Jim@OhiosTomorrow.com for more information or to schedule an interview.
