Exciting new study in @SciReports explores the impact of socioeconomic status (SES) and healthy lifestyles on cognitive function in older adults! 🧠🍏🏃‍♂️ @KBakulski @Henrypaulson5 @SungKyunPark1 @umichepid #Alzheimers #Aging nature.com/articles/s4159…

Interesting new research from Xin Wang in the @umichsph Department of Epidemiology on the correlation between air pollution and obesity in women.

#PFAS #Foreverchemicals linked to increased risks of incident hypertension in midlife women @NingDing_SPH @BhramarBioStat @SungKyunPark1 @umichsph ahajrnls.org/3RJXnS2

“Forever chemicals,” or "PFAS," are man-made chemicals that are slow to degrade and pose danger to human health. A new study from @UMichSPH research fellow @NingDing_SPH links PFAS to high blood pressure in women. On @washingtonpost ⬇️ myumi.ch/P1AEg

Very honored that our metals and metabolic syndrome paper is featured as the NIEHS paper of the month🙌💯 @BhramarBioStat @SungKyunPark1 @umichsph @NIEHS factor.niehs.nih.gov/2022/5/papers/…

Check out this new research article w/ contributions from several M-LEEaD members, including Siobán Harlow, @BhramarBioStat, Stuart Batterman & @SungKyunPark1! Read about how #PFAS are affecting menopause through effects on sex hormones: doi.org/10.1093/aje/kw… #NIEHS_EHSCC

New study reveals that exposure to PFAS, a group of widely used ‘forever chemicals’, may increase diabetes risk in middle-aged women bit.ly/3jxpowt #PFAS #foreverchemicals #diabetes @SungKyunPark1 @umichsph @NingDing_SPH @XinWang_Epid @BhramarBioStat @M_LEEaD

Check out this study by @SungKyunPark1 #ForeverChemicals #PFAS can lead to earlier natural menopause, possibly through endocrinologic mechanisms associated with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). @NingDing_SPH @BhramarBioStat @umichsph ow.ly/17ot50Ij3jn

Exposure to PFAS may contribute to higher body weight, larger waist circumference, and a higher percentage of body fat in midlife women during the menopausal transition. @NingDing_SPH @SungKyunPark1 #PFAS #foreverchemicals #EDCs #obesogens #health rdcu.be/cli8B

We reported a novel positive association between selenium and NAFLD at serum selenium level > 130 μg/L, suggesting important considerations for low-dose selenium overexposure in US adults. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @SungKyunPark1 @umichsph
