The number of studies conducted on the health effects of air pollution has increased exponentially. Important methodological advances include the application of novel observational study designs, in particular the multi-city design, and the development and application of airborne particle concentrators for use in experimental human exposure studies and toxicological studies. Experimental data are validating and providing insight into some surprising observational findings.
