In her book\, Dr. Duhaime discusses how our decisions and understanding of complex problems like climate change are influenced by neuroscience and the evolution of our brains. Dr. Duhaime will present key points from the book\, followed by a moderated discussion of strategies about how to use these insights. \nThis discussion session will be moderated by PRCCEH Deputy Director Marilyn V. Howarth\, MD\, FCPP. Dr. Howarth is a College Fellow and chairs the Environmental Health Committee of the Section on Public Health and Preventive Medicine. She is faculty at the Center of Excellence in Environmental Toxicology at the Perelman School of Medicine. \nThe discussion will be followed by a question & answer session with those in attendance. After the discussion\, Dr. Duhaime will be available to sign copies of her book. \nAbout Dr. Duhaime\nDr. Duhaime is a senior pediatric neurosurgeon at the Massachusetts General Hospital and is the Nicholas T. Zervas Distinguished Professor of Neurosurgery at Harvard Medical School. Her neuroscience research investigates mechanisms\, pathophysiology\, imaging\, and treatment of injury in the immature brain\, using translational and clinical approaches to study injuries occurring in infants and young children\, including those seen most commonly in child abuse. The work also investigates plasticity\, recovery\, and return of brain function in children and adolescents during maturation. \nDr. Duhaime also has a longstanding interest in the relationship between brain and behavior\, and in environmental issues. She is a Faculty Associate of the Harvard University Center for the Environment. Beginning with a fellowship at the Radcliffe Institute in 2016 she has explored the neurobiology of reward circuitry and plasticity and its relevance to pro-environmental behavior\, and also worked with a diverse team to design a prototype advanced “green” biophilic pediatric hospital. Her book on this work\, Minding the Climate\, was published in 2022 (Harvard University Press). She now serves as Associate Director of the Massachusetts General Hospital Center for the Environment and Health\, supervising the Research pillar\, and as Associate Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Climate Change and Health URL:https://live-penn-prcceh.pantheonsite.io/event/minding-the-climate-how-neuroscience-can-help-solve-our-environmental-crisis/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:external,PRCCEH,virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://live-penn-prcceh.pantheonsite.io/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/154323494_xl-123RF-photovs.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230927T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230927T170000 DTSTAMP:20230906T135341Z CREATED:20230906T135341Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230906T135341Z UID:4041-1695830400-1695834000@live-penn-prcceh.pantheonsite.io SUMMARY:The Not-So-'Micro' Plastic Problem: A Conversation with Matt Simon DESCRIPTION:For this webinar\, CHE-Alaska will be joined by science journalist Matt Simon\, author of the book A Poison Like No Other: How Microplastics Corrupted Our Planet and Our Bodies. In the book\, Simon reveals a new dimension to the plastic dilemma – how microplastics break down into small enough pieces to enter lungs\, be absorbed by crops\, and infiltrate aquatic animals’ muscle tissues.  Microplastics represent a cocktail of toxicity: plastics can contain as many as 10\,000 different chemicals. These include chemicals that are linked to diseases including cancers\, diabetes\, and other disorders associated with endocrine disruption. \nSimon will also discuss how the microplastic crisis pertains to the Arctic\, which is becoming increasingly contaminated. In a recent article Simon published on Wired\, he writes\, \n“As scientists have shown elsewhere\, the team found that microplastics contamination in the Arctic has been growing exponentially and in lockstep with the growth of plastic production—which is now up to a trillion pounds a year\, with the global amount of plastic waste projected to triple by 2060.” \n  \nRegister through Zoom URL:https://live-penn-prcceh.pantheonsite.io/event/the-not-so-micro-plastic-problem-a-conversation-with-matt-simon/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:external,virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://live-penn-prcceh.pantheonsite.io/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/98416582_xl-123RF-monticello.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230922T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230922T140000 DTSTAMP:20230720T163918Z CREATED:20230720T163917Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230720T163918Z UID:3955-1695387600-1695391200@live-penn-prcceh.pantheonsite.io SUMMARY:Impacts of Heat on Health in Early Life DESCRIPTION:Climate change has significant implications for human health\, particularly through the exacerbation of extreme heat events. \nThis panel brings together health experts to discuss the alarming consequences of rising temperatures on human health\, with a specific focus on the vulnerability of fetuses and newborns.

Fewer than 1% of the over 40\,000 chemicals imported\, processed\, or used in the U.S. are regularly biomonitored. Still fewer have been evaluated for adverse health outcomes during pregnancy. Chemical exposures during pregnancy have been linked with lifelong consequences for maternal and child health including cardiovascular disease\, diabetes\, adverse infant neurodevelopment\, and reproductive outcomes. These health outcomes are increasing at rates that cannot be fully explained by genetics or improvements in diagnostics. \nNon-targeted analysis (NTA) methods can help us tentatively identify chemicals that are not regularly studied. These chemicals can then be quantified through “targeted” methods\, giving us the ability to evaluate the association with adverse health outcomes. \nDr. Jessica Trowbridge and Dr. Tracey Woodruff will present the findings of their new study\, Extending Nontargeted Discovery of Environmental Chemical Exposures during Pregnancy and Their Association with Pregnancy Complications—A Cross-Sectional Study. This study uses the results of NTA methods to identify nine environmental chemicals in maternal samples and in cord blood\, and their association with adverse pregnancy outcomes. Some of these chemicals were measured in this study for the first time in pregnant people. The study finds chemical exposure is widespread\, including to perfluoroalkyl substances\, abnormal fatty acids used in plastics production\, and solvents used in consumer products\, pesticide production\, and plastics production. Additionally\, PFAS and abnormal fatty acids are associated with increased odds of gestational diabetes mellitus and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. \nThis study demonstrates the power of non-targeted methods to identify and measure environmental chemicals that are not regularly studied. It adds to the evidence that environmental contaminants can have lifelong consequences for pregnancy and health. \n\n  URL:https://live-penn-prcceh.pantheonsite.io/event/chemicals-and-pregnancy-complications-findings-from-nontargeted-analysis/ LOCATION:Online CATEGORIES:external,virtual ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://live-penn-prcceh.pantheonsite.io/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/pexels-matilda-wormwood-4098783-scaled.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230828T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230828T160000 DTSTAMP:20230814T132811Z CREATED:20230814T132811Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230814T132811Z UID:4008-1693234800-1693238400@live-penn-prcceh.pantheonsite.io SUMMARY:Children’s Environmental Health & the CDA DESCRIPTION:Join for a webinar on child care\, children’s environmental health\, and the Child Development Associate (CDA) credential.
