My field story is out, do give it a read and let me know what you think.
Also, don’t forget to share so others can also learn about lead exposure awareness.
Did you know a common remedy for pregnancy nausea could be hiding a dangerous secret? Eric Agyemang Duah, a photographer, travelled 50 feet underground into Ghana's clay mines to document the journey of Ayilor (white baked clay). While often consumed by pregnant women to relieve nausea, recent studies show that nearly 25% of sampled Ayilor is contaminated with lead, an invisible but severe threat to both maternal and child health.
Through his lens, we’re making this hidden danger visible. Lead poisoning is entirely preventable, and it starts with awareness, evidence and action. Read the full story behind Eric’s eye-opening journey and learn how we can protect our children’s futures: unicef.link/4xpYeuO

Does better writing cause journal editors and referees to evaluate papers more favorably?
New IZA DP "Writing Matters" by @EconFeld et al. suggests it does. #EconTwitter

PhDs can be challenging and public discourse tends to focus on the negatives.
To bring back some balance and positive momentum, this group of students sought to highlight the positive elements of the PhD experience. #AcademicChatter #PhDChat elifesciences.org/articles/8…
