Biography

Mireille Toledano trained at University College London and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, obtaining her PhD from Imperial College London. She is a fellow of the Higher Education Academy and a co-author of the Oxford Handbook series on Epidemiology for Clinicians. As an epidemiologist, her research interests span the health effects of environmental exposures, with a particular focus on environmental-omics during the reproductive period, early life, and adolescence. She has substantial expertise in leading the design, setup, and coordination of new large cohort studies, including the Breast Milk, Environment, Early-life Development (BEED) study and the SCAMP study, which investigates the effects of mobile phone use on neurocognitive behavioral outcomes. Toledano's work extends to adult cohorts such as COSMOS, an international study of adult mobile phone users. Her extensive experience includes working with large routine health datasets in spatial epidemiology concerning births, deaths, and hospital admissions, as well as national studies investigating adverse birth outcomes related to water disinfection by-products and air pollution. She is a member of several national and international advisory committees and currently serves as Chair of the European Chapter of the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology and as a member of the Editorial Board of Environmental Epidemiology.
