Lisa Liang is an Assistant Health Scientist with Cardno ChemRisk in the San Francisco, California office. She completed her Bachelors of Science in Environmental Toxicology with emphasis in aquatic toxicology at the University of California, Davis. As a student, she conducted research on the effects of photoactivated nanomaterials – titanium dioxide and zinc oxide – towards growth and development of sea star embryos. In her current position, she has reviewed and summarized scientific literature on health hazards and historical exposures associated with asbestos, benzene, and other occupational hazards. She has also assisted with performing a screening level risk assessment for various chemicals to establish acceptable levels of residual chemical substances.
Lisa is interested in fostering the growth and development of students and young professionals in the field of environmental toxicology and chemistry. As an attendee of multiple professional and social events hosted by NorCal SETAC, she saw the benefits of how these types of networking and educational opportunities enriched the experience of students and young professionals. She looks forward to bringing in her ideas and enthusiasm to the board in accomplishing the missions of this organization, and in contributing to the success of the NorCal SETAC annual meeting, scholarship appointments, and professional and social networking events.
