Professor Eva Morales

MD, PhD, MPH

Eva Morales (MD, PhD, and MPH) is Associate Professor of Epidemiology and Public Health at the University of Murcia (Spain). Her research interests focus on 1) birth cohorts: understanding of the role of genetics, epigenetics, and molecular mechanisms of human complex diseases and early development by analyzing data of cutting-edge longitudinal birth cohort studies; 2) environmental epidemiology: effects of air pollutants and endocrine disruptors on maternal and child health; and 3) epidemiology of asthma. She co-directs the Nutrition in Early Life and Asthma (NELA) birth cohort at the Biomedical Research Institute of Murcia.
