In a recent @NIH-funded study, researchers from @UMichSPH, @UCSF, & other institutions discovered a significant increase in exposure to chemicals among pregnant women. They also found that women of color & of lower socioeconomic status had higher exposure. myumi.ch/5WMdw

Our prepint is now published in @JExpSciEnvEpi! We report #lipidomic signatures associated with #phthalate exposures during pregnancy in the @PROTECT_SRP cohort. Lipid-mediated mechanisms may be an important link for downstream health outcomes!

In our latest preprint led by @PahriyaAshrap, we explored #lipidome-wide signatures of #phthalate exposures in the @PROTECT_SRP cohort. These findings advance our understanding of potential #mechanisms of phthalate #toxicity. medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Such an honor to be asked to speak on @AgentschangeEJ podcast with @max_aung and @amizota
And so important to be talking about equitable policy change to protect health and address environmental injustices.
Agents of Change@AgentschangeEJ
LISTEN: Check out our latest #podcast where our co-founder Dr. Ami Zota (@amizota) hosts Tracey Woodruff (@TraceyJWoodruff) + #EJChangeAgent Max Aung (@max_aung). They discuss shaping environmental chemical policy, #EnvironmentalJustice + more! #PodNation ehn.org/science-and-pu…

In the @PROTECT_SRP cohort, we explored #lipidomic signatures of pregnancy outcomes and find free fatty acids as important predictors of preterm birth, which complements our previous findings with #eicosanoids

Our recent findings among children in Mexico City suggest that essential and non-essential metals have the potential to disrupt the onset and progression of puberty via interrupting the critical hormonal pathways.
