Organizations honored me for my service. My life as a Federal official has
been spent serving the least fortunate among us and giving immense happiness

and joy to these deserving fellow Americans and our Allies.

I am Dr. Bruce A. Fowler and I served in the Department of Health and

Human Services at both the National Institutes of Health/National Institute of
Environmental Health Services (NIH/NIEHS) and the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention/Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry

(CDC/ATSDR). At NIEHS, I served as a Research Scientist and developed an
international reputation regarding the toxicology of lead, cadmium, mercury,
and arsenic. This expertise resulted in a number of high impact Committee
appointments for agencies such as the World Health Organization (WHO),

International Agency for Research against Cancer (IARC), the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the National Academies of

Science/National Research Council (NAS/NRC), which have supported
International Public Health recommendations for these major toxic elements.
I have also been honored as a Fellow of the Japanese Society for the
Promotion of Science, the Academy of Toxicology Scientists, and as Fulbright

Scholar and Swedish Medical Research Council Visiting Professor to Sweden
for my basic scientific contributions to toxicology. At Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention’s Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry

(ATSDR), as the Associate Director for Science, in the ATSDR’s Division of
Toxicology, I led a computational toxicology group, which provided crucial
risk assessment advice via CDC to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA), during the Deepwater Horizon Gulf Oil Spill. This information

permitted the EPA to keep the Gulf beaches open for use during the incident,
thus preventing the loss of millions of dollars in revenue by Gulf States.

As a federal official, I received a number of honor awards for my scientific
contributions to American and Global public health, including but not limited to
the following: Chairman of the National Academy of Sciences/National

Research Council Committee on Measuring Lead Exposure in Infants,
Children, and Other Sensitive Populations; Society of Toxicology-Colgate
Palmolive Visiting Professorship in In Vitro Toxicology, University of
Washington; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention National Center for

Environmental Health/Agency for Toxic Substance and Disease Registry
Awards for Excellence in Leadership, Excellence in Quantitative Sciences
