Dr. Allshouse is an environmental scientist with expertise in spatiotemporal modeling of pollutants and diseases. His current research focuses on pollutants produced across the well life cycle during oil and gas development and the effect on surrounding communities, the impact of indoor and outdoor air pollution on children's health, and environmental justice.
