When #JohnsHopkins scientists drove their air testing van to #CancerAlley they didn’t have a lot of pre-existing studies to compare to. And the #petrochemicalindustry self-reports to the EPA. What they found astonished them. What does it mean for the people there? Go to bit.ly/3STi1AP to learn more.

In the 1970s, an unusual number of children in Woburn, MA, fell ill with leukemia.

Two experts in disease clusters join Public Health On Call to explain what this case highlights about unusual patterns of cancer.

Cancer clusters—increased incidences of cancer within a certain region—can be challenging to investigate.

Two experts in disease clusters explain how cancer clusters should be studied, using a case study from the 1970s.

New research alert 👇
Study highlights a critical challenge: Even with rapid renewable growth, U.S. energy supply may still fall short of demand.
This study reminds us that the energy transition is as much a materials challenge as it is a technology one.
