🆕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? 🔥
Unlike total pm25 that varies ~smoothly over time wildfire pm25 has short-term extreme levels

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.
You can stand under my umbrella…

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.

We are doing it!
YES! EPA to limit toxic 'forever chemicals' in drinking water apnews.com/article/epa-pfas-… @AP
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!
Some absolutely stellar health and toxics reporting here about PFAS and turf inquirer.com/news/inq2/astro…
Amazing work that shows how widespread PFAS exposure across Europe

Unter dem Motto #Hamburgstehtstill wird es am Freitag (24.2.) anlässlich des russischen Überfalls auf die Ukraine eine Gedenkminute geben. Der Verein @menscHHamburg ruft dazu auf, um 12 Uhr für eine Minute innezuhalten und der Opfer des Krieges zu gedenken.

Amazing mom! Very brave and important work.
Didn't manage to grab any souvenirs for Sofia from Kyiv but pretty sure this is all she wants anyway 😅 #workingmom

President Joe Biden walks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at St. Michaels Golden-Domed Cathedral on a surprise visit to Kyiv.
It’s time to say goodbye to 10,000 #PFAS in Europe! The evidence is overwhelming. Tschüss!!
News on #PFASaction_EU(1/2) –You can now find the proposed restriction of around 10 000 #PFASs on our website.
Our scientific committees will evaluate the proposal to assess the potential risks to our health and the environment.

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 ow.ly/SGUh50LhH56
I’m grateful to work with @rmfrosch. I know all her colleagues feel the same. Congratulations Rachel! nature.berkeley.edu/news/202…
Many thanks to the @ArckLab for this collaboration and to @HIAS_Hamburg for the space and time to devote to research on health effect of #PFAS
Special thanks to the collaboration partners @PadulaAmy & Anke Diemert @UKEHamburg and Arne Heise @unihh & Altug Yalcintas @EconResEthics for exciting insights into their joint research projects.
