Dr. Hines is board-certified in Occupational Medicine, Pulmonary Medicine, and Internal Medicine. She is a member of the American Thoracic Society, the American College of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, and the International Society for Respiratory Protection.
Her research interests include respiratory protection and pulmonary function and symptom analysis in occupational exposure groups. She has participated in medical surveillance and studies of workers exposed to depleted uranium and other military-relevant sources, epoxy resins, artificial flavoring ingredients, construction workers, coal and hard rock miners and workers exposed to beryllium. She has made invited presentations at local and international conferences.
Dr. Hines serves as the Associate National Medical Director of the Building Trades Medical Screening Program. This Department of Energy (DOE)-sponsored program provides medical surveillance for over 18,000 former DOE workers from the construction trades.
