Source: (Journal of exposure science & environmental epidemiology) U.S. EPA's exposure science, led by CPHEA, addresses public health challenges by linking human health and environment. The research aims to tackle complex disease causes and disparities, promoting sustainable health for people, animals, and ecosystems. This blueprint outlines current challenges and methodologies, advocating for a One Health approach to optimize environmental public health actions.

Glad to refresh my knowledge of all the sub-disciplines of environmental health - toxicology, public health, and environmental epidemiology. This combination of knowledge is essential in conducting a risk assessment for a certain risk factor to determine whether an exposure poses significant risk to human health (probably pollution-related diseases). This can in turn be used to develop and implement environmental health policies at a company level and in an occupational context.

https://lnkd.in/dPpzQ2Ae A good read for all those who still think protecting the environment is for Environmental Officers and Sustainability Drivers.NO! Protecting the environment is for everyone because the impacts are. Share your thoughts on the Minamata Bay incident!

Uncovering the hidden connection between our environment and health Environmental epidemiology is the study of how our environment affects our health. It's like being a detective, searching for clues to understand how air and water pollution, climate change, and other environmental factors impact our well-being. Imagine a world where: - Clean air and water are plentiful - Natural disasters are fewer and farther between - Our surroundings support our health and happiness That's what environmental epidemiologists strive for! They investigate how our environment influences our health, identifying risks and opportunities for prevention. Their work is like a puzzle, piecing together data and research to understand the intricate relationships between our environment and health. By solving this puzzle, they inform policies and practices that promote a healthier planet for all. In short, environmental epidemiology is the science of connecting the dots between our environment and health, driving positive change for a better tomorrow!

This week’s digest includes a study co-authored by OHT’s Dr. Ramanan Laxminarayan. The qualitative, exploratory study identifies infrastructural, institutional, and sociocultural barriers to implementing environmental surveillance of #AntibioticResistance in low- and middle-income countries. Key informants reported various pathways to mitigate these barriers, some of which raised concerns about research and knowledge gaps due to the perceived inevitability of conflict, disagreement, or unavailability of resources in certain countries or regions. International agencies and the research community are equally important in helping to mitigate some of the barriers to actionable surveillance in lower-resource settings.

Source: (Toxicon : official journal of the International Society on Toxinology) Study on juvenile silver and bighead carp exposed to Microcystis and Oscillatoria cyanobacteria shows oxidative stress and inflammation effects. Both types induce different toxic responses; Microcystis is ingested effectively, while Oscillatoria is not. Findings highlight ecological and health risks of harmful cyanobacteria in fish, indicating need for further research.

Please join our President, Vardit Ravitsky, and colleagues for a webinar (Bioethics Must Address War as a Public Health Crisis) on 12/11 at 9am (EST)! 😊 👍 In this webinar they argue that war is a public health crisis that bioethics must do more to address. They propose several principles and suggest ways for putting them into practice. Register here, https://lnkd.in/egyj75sA #bioethics #war #publichealthcrisis #hastingscenter

Breaking Ground: Exploring the Environmental Impacts of Antimicrobial Resistance 22nd January, 2024 marked an important milestone in our AMR Intervarsity Training Program journey as we had a holistic crash course on Antimicrobial resistance from an agricultural and environmental perspective. Led by the esteemed Dr. Adesoji Ayodele Timilehin, PhD, a senior lecturer and researcher at the Federal University, Dutsinma. The session was both enlightening and thought-provoking. As the virtual room filled with eager participants from diverse backgrounds, Dr. Adesoji took the stage, ready to share his wealth of knowledge and expertise. With an evident genuine passion for the subject, he began by acknowledging the pivotal role antibiotics have played in modern medicine while highlighting the growing concern surrounding antimicrobial resistance. With each slide, Dr. Adesoji expertly navigated through the intricate web of factors contributing to the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance in agricultural and environmental settings. From the rampant misuse of antibiotics in livestock farming to the contamination of water sources with antibiotic residues, no stone was left unturned in our exploration of this pressing issue. Drawing on his extensive research and real-world experiences, Dr. Adesoji shed light on the economic, environmental, and public health implications of antimicrobial resistance. He emphasized the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health, stressing the need for a holistic One Health approach to combatting this global threat. As the session drew to a close, Dr. Adesoji left us with a call to action. He urged us to take responsibility for our actions and advocate for sustainable practices that promote antimicrobial stewardship and environmental conservation. Armed with newfound insights and a renewed sense of purpose, we parted ways, inspired to make a difference in our communities and beyond. As we reflect on that session, let us carry forward the lessons learned and continue to champion the fight against antimicrobial resistance. Together, we can create a healthier, more resilient future for generations to come. Sincere appreciation to The Foundation to Prevent Antibiotic Resistance for making this program a reality. Stay tuned for more updates and insights from our AMR Intervarsity Training Program. #AntimicrobialResistance #EnvironmentalHealth #OneHealth #AMRITP
