Check out my new co-authored article in @TheLancetHIV on Extreme Weather Events & HIV. It was great working with such fabulous scholars on this important and timely topic. https://t.co/gGJ0qd2e5X

In this new paper we calculate the unequal exchange of labour between the global North and global South. The results are quite staggering. You'll want to look at this... 🧵

What does it take to do #coffee research in #Uganda? Awesome community partners, driving on the left side of a wrecked dirt road, and the ability to hike long distances & steep hillsides in a skirt. @Lehigh_CAS

[Kelly F Austin @Kelly_F_Austin]

The @LehighU in Uganda team is exceptional this year! Couldn't be more proud to be working with this team of @Lehigh_CAS @LehighGSP @GlobalLehigh students. https://t.co/42JjhVvwMs

Good news! My article "Growing Food, Feeding Disease: Primary Sector Specialization and Malaria Incidence in Less-Developed Countries", co-authored with a
@LehighU @Lehigh_CAS undergrad, received enough citations to be a #TopCitedArticle in its journal.

“I was drawn to this position because I love working with undergraduates,” Austin said. “I love helping students. I love helping students who maybe even struggle with some of the similar things that I (did), like, ‘I have no idea what I want to study.’”

From our archives: “Humanity is running an ecological Ponzi scheme in which society robs nature and future generations to pay for boosting incomes in the short term,” a group of ecologists writes.

@_marycollier @GowriV @JosephHarrisBU Thanks so much! It was by far the most fun I've had presenting at #ASA!

[Pramila Jayapal @PramilaJayapal]

When nearly half of all Americans cannot afford a $400 emergency expense, it is unacceptable that we continue to pass tax cuts for the rich and pour more money into a bloated Pentagon budget.

We are not a country that suffers from scarcity. We suffer from greed.

This is how @Lehigh_CAS @LehighGSP @lehighsoan @GlobalLehigh does teamwork on the Uganda Sustainable Livelihoods program. The early rainy season making muddy roads (likely due to the #ClimateCrisis) might slow us down, but never stops us. #LehighStrong
