OverviewAI-generated summary

Mohammed S. Orloff, Associate Professor in Epidemiology at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, investigates public health issues with a focus on respiratory diseases and the impacts of electronic cigarette use. His work has examined the association between electronic cigarette use and conditions such as asthma, COPD, and asthma-COPD overlap syndrome, particularly among individuals who have never smoked conventional cigarettes. He has also studied the temporal dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 in wastewater and characterized electronic cigarette warning statements on digital platforms.

Orloff's research also addresses health disparities, including factors associated with smokefree home rules among Black/African American women smokers in rural communities and changes in capacity building to address racial/ethnic COVID-19 disparities. He collaborates with researchers such as Horacio Gómez-Acevedo, David W. Ussery, and Yasir Rahmatallah at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, and Ebrahim Jakoet at the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications. Orloff leads a research group and is recognized as a highly cited researcher, with an h-index of 25 and over 3,600 citations across more than 100 publications.
