Not only did 3M know the toxicological and environmental hazards of PFOS by the mid 1970s, they had themselves detected it in background human blood by the late 70s - this according to former employee Jim Johnson, detailed today in the New Yorker.

Torture the data and it will confess to anything… Matt Meier from Health Canada describing best practices to minimizing false discoveries in transcriptomic data analyses @EMGSUS. 👏
Closed out the research topic in @FrontTox that I co-edited with @MarcBeal - check out our editorial for a quick summary of these great articles! https://t.co/fyKm6buWP6
So excited to be launching our article series on our 2nd cohort of #MIF teams! This first installement features the amazing @KimminsSarah and her project #HisTurn which seeks to change the way we detect and treat male infertility.

New pub! We found that PFAS in mixtures exert additive effects on transcriptomic points of departure in human liver spheroids. In addition to informing PFAS toxicity, the work advances these important NAMs. Thx to incredible team-Greg Addicks & Ella Atlas! https://t.co/UJIhfClGcC

A heavy report coming out of an HC/ECCC collaboration.
After a few years of discussion it looks things are moving in the direction toward making decisions about PFAS as a whole class (rather than addressing chemicals a few at a time).
@ToxmasHartung inspiring us at the Health Canada Science forum, describing incredible opportunities for the future of NAMs. AI, organoids and microphysiological sytems, oh my! With brain organoids playing pong for some icing on the cake! 🤣
New #PFAS publication from our group @nysccwt in @EnvSciTech led by graduate student Kaushik Londhe in collaboration with @carriemcdphd. https://t.co/FTt6jZtx6p
Not able to join us for the 13th ICEM? You can still register to access recordings of the Sam Wilson Memorial Meeting, all 13 keynotes, 7 symposia, 1 platform, and the full poster gallery here:https://t.co/u6GwKQR6Kw!
@MauriceAtEcvam@CaroleYauk Thank you! I was genuinely happy to have met you and be part of the conversation with you and Scott, I hope we get a chance to chat more in the future.
Forget my earlier tweet. it was well and truly trumped by the US EPA drinking water advisories for #PFAS. pg/L levels = not possible to achieve! https://t.co/ycwkqQqPuJ
@CaroleYauk, at a special error-corrected (high accuracy) NGS event in London, brings the energy while sharing her vision for the future of genetic toxicology testing and cancer risk assessment.
