🆕manuscript out in @PNAS on a tough topic that took a lot of smart people to think through
🔥 How do we measure long-term exposure to wildfire pm25? 🔥

Lviv. Consequences of the night attack by Russian terrorists. Unfortunately, there are wounded and dead. My condolences to the relatives!
There will definitely be a response to the enemy. A strong one.
The biggest study in the US to date showing ⬆️PFAS are linked to ⬇️ birthweight. In not just 1, but all 5 PFAS detected in 11 pregnancy cohorts across the US. Thank you @ECHOChildHealth for making this possible and @EPA for starting to regulate PFAS in drinking water!

Here’s one more reason we don’t want PFAS in our water, our homes or in our bodies. Our latest study in 11 ECHO cohorts across the US found PFAS in pregnant people leads to lower birthweight.
NEW STUDY: "The evidence is clear: PFAS are having an adverse impact on birth weight." - Lead author PRHE's @PadulaAmy
Good thing #EPA is finally starting to take action.

This hits home. My first job was as a ball girl for the @Phillies and my first throw was to Darren Daulton in left field. My current job is studying health effects of #PFAS. Please get this stuff away from us!

@joanacasey I used to add the line… the engine on the bus should be electric, be electric, be electric… (after the line - the gas in the bus goes glug glug glug)
The WHO has issued draft drinking water guidelines for #PFOS and #PFOA that would allow vastly higher levels than the EPA recommended in its own proposed rule @patrizzuto@environment https://t.co/o8pu7HUgYI
