He holds a bachelors degree from the University of Cambridge and a Ph.D. in chemistry from Dartmouth College and is a retired professor of environmental chemistry and toxicology at St. Lawrence University. He lives in Binghamton, New York. In his fascinating presentations Dr. Connett shares his wealth of information with you, bringing new research to light, including links between fluoride and harm to the brain, bones, and endocrine system, and informing us about how the evidence that fluoridation reduces tooth decay is surprisingly weak.

He has a Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Missouri. He has been involved in environmental and human health risk assessment for 36 years, in the chemical industry, then at EPA HQ as senior risk assessment scientist.
