Does cooking with gas increase health risks? Our new randomized study says yes. We find that NO2 exposures are 50% higher when you cook with gas vs. induction. @MarshallBBurke @darbyjack @USFQ_Ecuador @UCSanDiegoSPH @stanforddoerr @ColumbiaMSPH https://t.co/x7u0enMH0z

Based on some requests, we've estimated the population in CA exposed to different levels of wildfire smoke from the recent LA fires. Tens of millions were exposed to some PM2.5 smoke, ~6m had a few days >25ug PM2.5, ~2m had a few days > 50ug. These are large numbers.

IARC #Monographs📙Vol 135 is available online. This vol covers perfluorooctanoic acid #PFOA & perfluorooctanesulfonic acid #PFOS, which are polyfluoroalkyl substances #PFAS. PFOA was evaluated as carcinogenic, Grp 1, & PFOS as possibly carcinogenic, Grp 2B https://t.co/sAQ10FtyfJ

Timely new paper on chemical species in wildfire smoke, expertly led by @emma_ks1. We find that smoke drives detectable increases in concentrations of 25 out of 27 species we examine, incl stuff like lead and arsenic, often distant from the active fire. 1/

Here is United States law regarding the President's attempts to close our development assistance agency in secret over the weekend. It is illegal. No ambiguity. Americans decide with their actions, today, if the US is a country of laws or—something else.

new paper on the chemical composition of wildfire smoke, how smoke composition changes when structures burn, and the cancer risk associated with historical wildfire smoke exposure in the US. out today in Environmental Science & Technology @StanfordECHOLab

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to put pressure on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research

New paper characterizing trends in wildfire smoke PM2.5 in the US, incl. updated daily dataset and implications for air quality regulation. Below is animation of 2023. Paper: https://t.co/lnxYZGPFGx Data (BETA version): https://t.co/nUZ7sEF1Ti
