Ohio River Valley Climate & Health Conference
In August, Charlie Zhang and Kyle Lucas participated in the Ohio River Valley Climate & Health Conference at The University of Cincinnati. Their poster, “The Danger of Urban Heat: Exploring the Relationship between .... Temperature, and Coronary Heart Disease in Jefferson County, KY” showcases their research on how the urban heat island contributes to environmental and health disparities, particularly among underrepresented communities, a project funded by the University of Louisville’s Undergraduate Summer Research Opportunity Program (SROP).
