About
Dr. Janette D. Sherman is a pioneering toxicologist and physician whose research has fundamentally shaped our understanding of environmental and occupational health hazards. Her key contributions focus on the toxic effects of industrial chemicals, particularly pesticides and solvents, and their links to human disease. Dr. Sherman is best known for her landmark work documenting the health impacts of chemical exposures, including her seminal book *Chemical Exposure and Disease*, which remains a critical resource for clinicians and researchers. She was among the first to systematically connect environmental toxins to cancer, reproductive harm, and immune system dysfunction, often drawing from her clinical practice and epidemiological studies. Her paper on controlling equine respiratory disease (1977, 6 citations) reflects her early work in veterinary medicine, but her broader influence is immense: her research has been cited thousands of times across toxicology, public health, and environmental science. Dr. Sherman’s relentless advocacy for chemical safety and her role as an expert witness in landmark litigation have cemented her legacy as a fearless voice for public health, inspiring generations of scientists to investigate the hidden dangers in our environment.
