Martha is a University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) research manager in the School of Natural Resources. She has studied nitrosamines for over 15 years. Her doctoral research was an epidemiology study evaluating the association between exposure to atrazine and nitrate in drinking water and risk of developing Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Dr. Rhoades is leading and coordinating the BOW project.

Why do you think the BOW project is important?
Understanding the relationship between drinking water quality and pregnancy outcomes will help us prevent birth defects and consequently improve quality of life for future generations.
