Dr. Ryan Lewis is a Principal Scientist in 51社区's Health Sciences practice. He has more than 15 years of scientific consulting and research experience in the areas of exposure science, industrial hygiene, and environmental epidemiology. He was educated at the University of Michigan (B.S. and Ph.D.) and Harvard University (M.S.). His work involves the evaluation of exposures and health effects at the individual and population levels, in occupational and non-occupational settings, and from consumer to industrial product use scenarios. He is experienced with a wide range of agents such as asbestos, bisphenol A, ethanol, ethylene oxide, glass fibers, heavy metals, non-asbestiform minerals, pesticides, phthalates, power-frequency magnetic fields, silica, talc, and wood dust.

Dr. Lewis has published 32 peer-reviewed scientific papers, which have been cited more than 1,200 times. His papers address three primary areas:

  • Epidemiologic analyses and systematic literature reviews of environmental exposures and health endpoints;
  • Evaluation of exposure measurement error, exposure misclassification, and confounding in epidemiology studies; and
  • Characterization, predictors, and contextualization of exposures.

Dr. Lewis is on the editorial board of Frontiers in Public Health and was formerly on the editorial boards of Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health and Toxicology and Industrial Health. He has also served as an invited reviewer for more than 20 scientific journals.
