Committee looking at health impacts of East Palestine train derailment for future research

Published on

A new committee on the East Palestine train derailment is gathering information on the physical and mental health impacts to improve research efforts. "It is critically important that we don't look at and consider the train derailment as something in the past, it's over," said Dr. Maureen Lichtveld, dean of the University of Pittsburgh's School of Public Health, who a member of the committee put together by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine.
