Dr. Miller, Professor of Environmental Health Sciences, founded the HERCULES Exposome Research Center at Emory University, the first exposome-based research center in the U.S, and authored the first book on the topic, The Exposome: A Primer published by Elsevier. He recently moved to Columbia University. His research focuses on environmental drivers of neurodegeneration. His laboratory uses a variety of methods including transgenic mouse production, immunohistochemistry, neurotransmitter transport assays, high-resolution metabolomics, electrochemistry, and behavioral assays. His work is conducted in a variety of experimental models from cultured neurons and C. elegans to mice and human studies. He serves as an advisor to several exposome-associated research entities, including the Human Biomonitoring for the European Union (HBM4EU).
