New study by @SilentSpringIns, @UCBerkeleySPH, and @BerkeleyLaw reveals that more than 5,000 tons of toxic chemicals associated with cancer, birth defects, and reproductive harm are released from consumer products into our homes and workplaces each year. #Prop65 #CancerPrevention
Hey Exposure Scientists! Is your research focused on potentially highly exposed or susceptible subpopulations? Consider submitting an abstract to the "Who are the PESS?" symposium at ISES 2023. #ises2023 #exposureinequities

I'll be sharing @SilentSpringIns research on chemical exposures indoors and outlining strategies to limit unwanted exposures. @CHE_healthenv @BGAlliance @HBNKnowBetter @GBA_pgh @UCSF_PRHE
Tune in at 2 PM EST tomorrow for this exciting webinar featuring Silent Spring scientist @robinedodson !
Great podcast interview with @marissawchan, an @AgentschangeEJ fellow. Great work, Marissa. Keep it up!
LISTEN: “This is a systems problem — not strong enough regulations for personal care product safety, as well as social drivers and perspectives.” - @marissawchan

Reduced COVID transmission AND better indoor air quality?! Yes, please! #CorsiRosenthalBox lowers #PFAS and #phthalate indoor air levels. New study with @Brown_SPH @brownengin & @SilentSpringIns pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

Silent Spring's @robinedodson was recently featured on @TJamesTodd_PhD & @ERJ_Lab's new podcast Beauty + Justice to talk about toxic chemicals in beauty products -- especially ones marketed towards and used by Black women, as well was ways to prevent exposure.
Beauty + Justice looks at the history and context surrounding beauty injustices, the potential impacts on health—from asthma to early menstruation to breast cancer—and the sometimes painful emotional toll of trying to attain a certain beauty standard. bit.ly/3Gb2UgH

Another reason to be concerned about unregulated chemicals in beauty products that disproportionately impact black women. Rates of uterine cancer are increasingly rapidly--and we wonder why. nytimes.com/2022/10/17/healt…
Honoring Rachel Carson's legacy. @SilentSpringIns colleague Jennie Liss Ohayon wrote, "Why is the EPA still exposing women to pesticides linked to breast cancer?" ehn.org/pesticides-and-breas…
Exposure to endocrine disruptors has an impact on reproductive health. Important article on exposure inequities, highlighting #TakingStockStudy and partners @bhavnasham and @BW4WLA #EDCs

At #ISES2022? Please join me at the Environmental Justice session this afternoon. I’ll be sharing a new exposure tool for consumer product research developed for the Taking Stock Study.
She’s going to talk about her work on the Taking Stock study, which used a smartphone app to collect detailed product use information from Black and Latina women.

Silent Spring found #PFAS in dental floss, including Oral-B Glide, in a 2019 study (bit.ly/3S1xEUq). We also found women who flossed with Oral-B Glide had higher levels of PFAS in their body. PFAS-free options exist. Why aren't more companies making the switch?
That nice waxy glide as you floss your teeth? Could be PFAS, the "forever chemical" that hijacks hormones and is linked to reproductive problems, birth defects, testicular cancer. #toxics ow.ly/ZboK50KIo7f

@NIEHS Director Rick Woychik, Ph.D., sat down with Silent Spring’s Dr. @JuliaGBrody and @UofR Medical Center’s Dr. Katrina Korfmacher to talk about the importance of “report-back” of research to study participants.
