Important work from @annie_nigra showing consistent associations between elevated community water metal concentrations and Hispanic communities. We need to continue to pursue stronger regulatory policies and water treatment to help address disparities.

🥳Congratulations to Paige Bommarito, a former Fry lab @IEHS_UNC researcher! Her publication is highlighted on EHP’s first Editor’s Choice collection for 2021! factor.niehs.nih.gov/2022/3/papers/…

She is also a @UNCRoysters Fellow. Her research focuses on environmental exposures during pregnancy. @liyahclarks is also interested in social epidemiology & hopes to explore upstream determinants of health and disparate chemical exposures.

Jeliyah Clark is a @UNCpublichealth ESE PhD student in the lab of @rcfry. @liyahclarks is a @UNC_SRP @IEHS_UNC trainee & former @CSS_Science scholar. She has been affiliated with @UNCpublichealth since participating in the Summer Public Health Symposium for HS students in 2012.
