Many thanks to our collaborator @LeeVG11@ArizonaState for his excellent talk in class (We Are What We Eat) discussing Chronic Malnutrition & Child Gut Microbiome, including highlights of recent findings from our #Zinc biofortified #Maize assessment in #Guatemala@CornellCALS 🌽
Quantifying the efficacy of building water system interventions using log reduction values informs evidence-based water management plans- Hunter Quon, Jumana Alja’fari, @BoyerLabASU@LeeVG11@SayaleeJoshi et al. https://t.co/db5lK2UlcP
In this study @LeeVG11 explores the concept of ‘WASH mobility’ and evaluates wealth-dependent effects of WASH and nutrition factors on child chronic malnutrition across Guatemala. @ASU@ASUGlobalFuture. Read more in ACS ES&T Water: https://t.co/L96XgYO6nl
@LeeVG11 and colleagues highlight the need to think beyond hardware when co-designing solutions to water and sanitation service delivery problems in low-resource settings. @ASU@ASUGlobalFuture@wuqukawoq . Read more in ACS ES&T Water: https://t.co/Qs3eawgiC0

This is it. The first complete map of transboundary aquifers between Mexico and the US was published. More than grateful, I am hopeful that this will help future generations to build and propose upon it.
New Nature paper provides evidence that science has become less innovative since the 1950s. The authors suggest reversing the trend by:
1. reading widely,
2. focusing less on quantity of papers, & more on research quality,
3. taking year-long sabbaticals.

A new study shows germs that can make you sick can get into cistern water. If you use cistern water, treat the water to remove germs before using it for:
- Drinking
- Cooking
- Brushing teeth
- Showering
- Washing an open wound

In sanitation programs, is pretty good coverage good enough? "Increases in child health of 0.3 standard deviations are realized once village sanitation coverage reaches 50–75%. There do not appear to be further gains beyond this threshold." https://t.co/g7Fkks0cSh
