Great job undergrad Olivia Gittens on a 🥇 (1st place) award in the UC Honors Capstone Competition (pm session)! Fun collaboration with @DrMahabee. Can’t wait to continue this important work on epigenetics of 2nd hand smoke exposure.

Providing counseling to parental smokers during emergency department and urgent care visits is not costly and may have lasting health benefits on children and parents alike! @DrMerianos

[Tobacco Prevention & Cessation @TPC_Journal]

Just released ⮞ A study on the costs of providing parental smokers who bring their children to the emergency setting, with a screening, brief intervention, about tobacco cessation and NRT by @meta_narrator @DrMerianos @DrMahabee at @TPC_Journal | DOI: https://t.co/XbLbW5U2Ao
