Dr. Mark D. Hoover is a health and safety scientist at Mark D Hoover LLC. He earned a BS degree in mathematics and English in 1970 from Carnegie Mellon University and MS and PhD degrees in nuclear engineering in 1975 and 1980 from the University of New Mexico. He is board certified in the comprehensive practice of health physics and board certified in the comprehensive practice of industrial hygiene. Mark retired on December 31, 2018, from his position as a senior research scientist in the Respiratory Health Division at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in Morgantown, West Virginia. NIOSH is the leading U.S. federal agency conducting research and providing guidance on the occupational safety and health implications and applications of nanotechnology. Prior to joining NIOSH in 2000, Mark was an aerosol scientist for 25 years at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lovelace Respiratory Research Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Mark has served as chairman or contributor to the development of many national and international standards, is a past chairman of the AIHA Nanotechnology Working Group, chair of the Nanotechnology Committee of the Health Physics Society, and is author or co-author of more than 200 open literature publications. He chaired the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) Scientific Committee 2-6 on Radiation Safety Aspects of Nanotechnology. Special emphasis areas for Mark’s work are to use nanoinformatics, nanotechnology, and sensors to develop and sustain leaders, cultures, and systems for safety, health, well-being, and productivity. Activities include a graded approach to exposure assessment and characterization of nanoparticles in the workplace, development of a prototype Nanoparticle Information Library, and promotion of opportunities to apply informatics and performance-based occupational exposure limits or control banding approaches to nanotechnology. Mark was Co-Director of the NIOSH Center for Direct Reading and Sensor Technologies, coordinator of the NIOSH Exposure Assessment Cross-sector Research Program, and a critical area leader in the NIOSH Nanotechnology Research Center.
