The global population is undergoing sweeping changes that are shifting the balance toward an older and more urbanized population that experiences more chronic disease and a greater gap between rich and poor. In this podcast, Kenneth Olden tells what these changes mean in terms of public health challenges and how he believes we must prepare to meet these challenges. Olden was director of the NIEHS and the National Toxicology Program from 1991 to 2005. He served as NIEHS director emeritus and continued his research activities at the institute until 2008, when he left to help establish a new school of public health at the Hunter College campus of the City University of New York.
