What a loss that @marinavance.bsky.social's EPA-funded research on wildfire smoke in homes has been canceled! I remain a proud academic mom. She did her PhD on exposure to engineered nanoparticles @virginiatech.bsky.social, right as my lab was shifting to study viruses in the air.
The @nytimes.com Lost Science series continues. Here's my Q&A with a scientist who was studying how wildfire smoke threatens human health when the EPA decided that her research was no longer a funding priority. Gift link: nyti.ms/4jhpw14
