Dan Greenbaum leads HEI’s efforts to provide public and private decision makers — in the U.S., Asia, Europe, and Latin America — with high quality, impartial, relevant, and credible science about the health effects of air pollution in order to inform air quality decisions in the developed and developing world. In that role he works with HEI’s sponsors in government and industry, its Scientific Committees and staff, and other environmental stakeholders to develop and implement the HEI Strategic Plan for Understanding the Health Effects of Air Pollution, which every five years sets HEI’s course for the targeted, trusted science that has become the hallmark of HEI.

Greenbaum has been a member of the U.S. National Research Council (NRC) Board of Environmental Studies and Toxicology and Vice Chair of its Committee for Air Quality Management in the United States. He recently served on the NRC’s Committee on The Hidden Costs of Energy and is currently serving on the Committee on Grand Challenges for Environmental Engineering. Greenbaum also chaired the EPA’s Blue Ribbon Panel on Oxygenates in Gasoline and EPA’s Clean Diesel Independent Review Panel, which reviewed technology progress in implementing the 2007 Highway Diesel Rule. He is currently a member of EPA’s national Clean Air Act Advisory Committee.
