Please join the UCB SRP for a workshop on PFAS on June 7, at the David Brower Center in Berkeley. We will discuss how recent research findings can be applied to policies that protect public health and the environment in California and EPA Region IX. eventbrite.com/e/pfas-worksho…

Proud to share the newly developed key characteristics (KCs) of immunotoxic agents which can be used to improve efforts to identify agents that cause immunotoxicity, develop better tests and biomarkers, and enhance mechanistic understanding. @KeyChars @SRP_NIEHS @EHPonline
Environmental Health Perspectives@EHPonline

NEW: #Keycharacteristics have been applied to the systematic assessment of toxicants for several outcomes, such as carcinogenicity and cardiotoxicity. Now Germolec et al. have identified 10 KCs of immunoactive agents ➡️ ow.ly/jbta50L3sul @NIEHS @UCB_EHS @martyntsmith

Great news!! #PFAS will be banned from use in cosmetics (AB 2771) & textiles (AB 1817) in California, impacting products across the US. Very happy to have helped just a bit in making this happen, huge kudos to @PhilTing, @laurafriedman43, and countless scientists & advocates.

Saving the best for last! @annebozack presenting on prenatal metal exposure and #epigenetic aging in childhood. More evidence that biological #aging might be partially programmed prenatally 🧬⏳ #ISEE2022
