Katherine Landwehr

PhD student at the Telethon Kids Institute, Wal-yan Respiratory Research Centre and Curtin University looking into biodiesel toxicity. My views are my own.

Our third impact story we are sharing today as part of the @WalyanCentre's celebrations for @Aus_ScienceWeek is 👉Biodiesels not as clean and green as they seem https://t.co/7eNqYvcJ8H as featured in the @telethonkids Impact Report. This #research is led by @KatLandwehr

My first review is out! Curious about how children and adults may respond differently to SARS-CoV-2 and its variants? Give it a read😊 @DrAnthonyKicic @AshaBowen @ChrisBlyth74 @stephen_stick A. Imrie, T. Kollmann @WalyanCentre @telethonkids @UWAresearch

Just because #fuel #additives make the #diesel #exhaust better for health outcomes in theory, doesn't mean they don't cause more #toxic health effects in practice. @WalyanCentre @telethonkids @CurtinUni : https://t.co/xEVFVHdckw

[Katherine Landwehr @KatLandwehr]

#Biodiesel #toxicity differs depending on the type of feedstock used to make it, something we need to take into account when looking at #renewable #fuels and how they affect human health #research #exhaust #HealthIsWealth @WalyanCentre @telethonkids: https://t.co/FI3yhpJE07

The third paper for my PhD, and arguably the most important. Some biodiesel types are a toxic green, not the natural one many think of for renewable energy #ScienceTwitter #biodiesel : Fuel feedstock determines biodiesel exhaust toxicity... https://t.co/BZqoWfXB70

This is a critical review of Diesel exhaust exposure health impact research relevant to occupational settings: Are we controlling the wrong pollutants? #ScienceTwitter #Pollutants #Diesel #Exhaust #criticalreview @WalyanCentre

Congrats Ruth!!! Much deserved #otitismedia #research

[WCVID @WCVID]

Well done to our final #WACRF recipient, Dr Ruth Thornton, lead of the ATOMIC Ears Study by @telethonkids @UWAresearch @CurtinUni @PerthChildrens researchers evaluating the safety & tolerability of anti-biofilm therapy in kids with recurrent #otitismedia

Another awesome job by @KatLandwehr and colleagues investigating the effects of fuel additives on the lungs! @WalyanCentre @CurtinUni @telethonkids

Thanks @DrFuery it was great to present and get the conversation started!

[Angela Fuery @DrFuery]

Great to hear from A/Prof Alex Larcombe and @KatLandwehr on their studies of #HeatedTobaccoProducts #HTP and their effect on #respiratory health at #walyanretreat #wadjemup #Rottnest @WalyanCentre @telethonkids

[Katherine Landwehr @KatLandwehr]

Finally joining the Twitter #research conversation! Thought this paper would be a good place to start. @WalyanCentre @telethonkids #Biodiesel #resptox
