Postdoctoral Scholar, Epidemiology
BioDr. Astrid N. Zamora is a public health researcher and epidemiologist whose work examines how environmental factors—including built and chemical exposures—and key health behaviors such as sleep, diet, and physical activity influence cardiometabolic and related health outcomes.
