We would love to hear what you think?

Welcome to another episode of The Exposure Scientist Podcast with Dr. Alex LeBeau. Today, we're diving into a topic that's at the heart of the profession: branding and identity in exposure science and industrial hygiene. Dr. LeBeau takes us outside for a candid conversation about the ever-evolving field, exploring questions like, what exactly is industrial hygiene? How have roles and expectations shifted with attempts to rebrand the field as “occupational and environmental health and safety” (OEHS) professionals? And why do so many people—even those seeking help—struggle to understand what exposure scientists actually do?

Through personal anecdotes and industry insights, Dr. LeBeau sheds light on the challenges exposure scientists face in defining their expertise, communicating their value outside their professional echo chamber, and ensuring the next generation grasps both the roots and the future of this vital work. Whether you’re a student, a fellow professional, or just curious about the field, this episode encourages us all to sharpen our "elevator pitch" and rethink how we tell the world who we are and what we do. So let’s get started—because understanding exposure science is more important than ever.
