Graduates
Before formally established as the COBE, members of our group served as advisors or committee members for students whose thesis or dissertation topics were related to occupational or environmental health. Most of these students served as graduate student researchers in our group. The following list includes such students who graduated from the Graduate School of Public Health from 1990 to the present:
