Please join Chemical Insights Research Institute (CIRI) of UL Research Institutes (ULRI) on June 13, 2024, from 2-3 p.m. ET for the second session of CIRI’s 2024 webinar series Building Resilience for Health.  

Wildfires are a growing worldwide threat as climate change drives more extreme weather events. During this webinar, expert panelists will define and describe the wildland urban interface (WUI) and its uniquely toxic fires and subsequent health effects, share strategies for mitigating risks and preparing communities in the WUI, and give attendees an interdisciplinary path forward to answer some of today’s most challenging questions.
