Excited to announce a new Science article, co-authored by Dr. Rohr! In this work, Rohr and collaborators show that chronic, low-dose exposure to chlorpyrifos, a widely used insecticide, speeds up aging in a common lake fish by shortening its telomeres, thus leading to premature death. Check it out!
Chronic low-dose exposure to chlorpyrifos reduces life span in a wild fish by accelerating aging
Low concentrations of chemicals are widespread in the environment, but exploration of the effects of their chronic exposures on animal life span in the wild is limited. Field investigations showed tha...

We are thrilled to announce a new comment article in The Lancet, co-authored by Dr. Rohr! In this comment, Rohr and colleagues highlight the intrinsic connection between Earth system stability/resilience and planetary health. Check out the full-length piece using the link below!
Connecting planetary boundaries and planetary health: a resilient and stable Earth system is crucial for human health
Earth system scientists developed the planetary boundaries framework for measuring
and tracking the stability and resilience of the Earth system.1 The framework quantifies
safe boundary levels for nin...
