Really appreciate coverage of our work (w/@amandayarnell & @yuningliu712) in @nytimes today, from @EllenBarryNYT.

📰 Super excited to see my article published along with journalists from around the world on 'How To Fix Climate Journalism' series at @risj_oxford — Climate journalists are struggling. Newsrooms should develop a mental health strategy to help them cope. reutersinstitute.politics.ox…
Thanks so much @EllenBarryNYT for writing such a smart and fun piece about the new @HarvardChanCHC's mental health creators initiative! From the first sentence to the last, a truly great read. 🙏🏼
Academics generally take a dim view of #mentalhealth Tiktok, viewing it as a Wild West of overgeneralization and bad advice.
But this year, Harvard's Chan School of Public Health tried something totally new, recruiting and cultivating its own team of mental health influencers.

The FDA regulates food contaminants like e.coli that cam make us acutely ill...
... should it also regulate ultra-processed food, which seems to be driving an epidemic of chronic illness?

Lipinski and colleagues published the rule of 5 to help facilitate the discovery of oral drugs more than 25 years ago. In the intervening years, it's become both dogmatic and divisive. My latest for @cenmag
