New research from the @CHILDSTUDY & others on how widespread environmental chemicals relate to allergic diseases in children 👇
JESEE@JExpSciEnvEpi
New study finds that prenatal & postnatal exposure to #phthalates & #bisphenols is linked to childhood #asthma, #wheeze & #allergies. 👶 5,300+ kids 🌎 US, Canada, Australia 📉 Exposure timing matters 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4137… 📢 Kudos to @BoissiereT, @MeghanAzad, @DrJoeBraun

New #breastmilk research from the @CHILDSTUDY: how a maternal antibody in milk prevents an allery-promoting microbe from colonizing the infant gut.
Exciting transnational work from @Kate_Donald_ & team!
Kate Donald@Kate_Donald_
Excited to share our latest work out now in PNAS! Using @CHILDSTUDY human milk samples, we uncover a new link between maternal IgA, infant gut microbiota composition, and immune development. @FinlayLab @MeghanAzad @TurveyLab 🔗 pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107…

Science and research matter.
They are fundamental building blocks of Canada.
We need a minister with research in their title.
Research leads to innovation and
economic growth.
Time for Canada to lead and welcome researchers to build Canada.

#Breastfeeding peeps (parents and scientists!) - if you could have a ✨rapid test✨ for breastmilk, to detect anything you want - what is on your wish list?
- Medications?
- Alcohol?
- Pathogens?
- Food allergens?
- ... etc!

Fully agreed with Dr. @MeghanAzad. My #ResearchManitoba new investigator grant helped establish my lab, get pubs out, and increase our competitiveness for national and international funding. Provincial funding commitments that match inflation alone are sorely needed
