Thank you Philip and Dajana!
Thank you Philip Britz-McKibbin and Dajana Vuckovic and team for organizing such a successful #MetSoc2023 conference. Amazing speakers, posters and fantastic discussions and network sessions
Looking forward to excellent talks at international Metabolomics Society conference. Great start with Craig Wheelock #metsoc #metabolomics

Frustrated that the pounds keep flooding back after losing weight on a diet? PFAS, pervasive environmental contaminants known as "forever chemicals," could play a role.

What a wonderful 2 days of excellent exposomics related discussions at Canadian Metabolomics Conference #CanMetCon.
Sleep deprivation has profound impact (maybe more than diet) on health outcomes. PNAS study shows >700 genes affected by one week of sleep deprivation and puts body into inflammatory state. bit.ly/46bpGQK
Forget about dry cleaning- trichloroethylene is highly implicated to increased risk of developing Parkinsons disease. bit.ly/3qMm6fy
Fantastic discussion of exposomics at CanMetCon conference at Niagara On the Lake. bit.ly/3NcNomI
Interesting study collated from research from around the world find that areas with high Li in drinking water have lower levels of suicide. Adding Li to drinking water may actually help mitigate the social cancer that fuels Facebook, Instagram etc... bit.ly/30XHHkm
Extremely encouraging findings on degradation of PFAS "forever chemicals" with boron nitride catalyst and UV. 99% of PFAS degraded in 4 hours. Also degrades GenX. Advances in testing = legislation = remediation pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
More accurate method for determining dog age developed by researchers at UCSD by measuring rate and extent of epigenetic methylation to genome and comparing to humans. bit.ly/2D6tZDM More accurate than 7x rule #goodboy #goodgirl #dogsarelove
Early life exposure and childhood obesity study published. bit.ly/31F2c7p. 1301 children studied (6-11 y) investigating prenatal exposure to POPs, tobacco and metals. Maternal smoking large influence on child BMI #exposomics #smoking #BMI #obesity

Study reveals birth defect from paternal exposure to flame retardant PBB-153. go.nature.com/2UTHP2j. Exposure causes epigenetic changes in sperm cells that affects health of offspring
Can accelerated aging be detected in mitochondrial DNA and telomere length by exposure to environmental pollutants? Reactive oxygen species from pollutants can result in inflammation bit.ly/3g380fS
Toxin exposure from environmental pollutants can result in damage to mitochondria and creation of osteoclasts responsible for osteoporosis and bone loss bit.ly/3bJ5oAj

Unraveling the Exposome- book recently published and can be found here bit.ly/2DbRUk7. The book provides a good overview of the field and some latest advances in the science of exposome research
Attention to those on Ketogenic and Atkins diets. The effects of high fat diet may have negative health implications 3 generations into the future. bit.ly/2ND35CM Source article here bit.ly/2ydbsAk
