"Growing up with German Shepherds fueled my fascination with learning and social behavior." @MarSobolewski embraces scientific complexity & collaboration, inspired by her early research in Uganda’s Kibale National Park. 🔗: urmc.info/1Fu #URochesterResearch

Thanks for sharing this reminder that we need to keep our foot on the gas pedal, and make sure that everyone has access to education, career choice, purchasing power, autonomy over their body, and independence.

Happy Birthday Ruth!

Hae-Ryung Park, along with colleagues from @URochester_SMD and @HarvardChanSPH, is lead author of a paper in @NatureComms that provides insights into the placental response to environmental stress. 📢 #URochesterResearch nature.com/articles/s4146…

@UR_IHHE @URochester_SMD @HarvardChanSPH @NatureComms Environmental exposures can profoundly affect maternal-fetal health. This fantastic study is about how arsenic, a common environmental contaminant, affects placenta; it informs pregnancy pathologies and provides a new basis for strategies to improve maternal & fetal health.

@UR_Med Research by @UR_IHHE scientists, with funding from @NIEHS, helps better understand the balance between health benefits of eating fish, and challenges due to environmental contaminants that accumulate in fish, like mercury. urmc.rochester.edu/news/publicati… #UResearchRochester

Your guide to mercury in fish... ⬇️ Here's the latest on health benefits and #mercury risks of fish, backed by #URochesterResearch: urmc.info/1EU
