I'm proud to be giving another guest lecture on the misrepresentation and weaponization of science by transphobes, misogynists, and snake oil salespeople, and how we can frame our research more responsibly in light of it.

Thinking about the future of environmental health research and communication, I want to bring attention to the weaponization of EDC science against reproductive choice and gender affirming care. More extensive writing is forthcoming, but watch out for rhetoric stigmatizing birth control, HRT, etc.
