What an honor to host world-renowned doctor, human rights activist & Nobel Peace Prize recipient Dr. Denis Mukwege at @UMichSPH this week. It was inspiring to hear about his compassionate & courageous work at HĂ´pital G.R de Panzi to treat & support wartime sexual violence survivors.

Last week, I had the opportunity to celebrate a terrific year with Michigan Public Health faculty, staff and students at our annual winter celebration. I always appreciate these moments to pause, reflect and connect with our community as we wrap up the semester.

In partnership with Apple, Rick Neitzel used Apple Watch data to study noise exposure on #SuperBowl Sundays and found a 2-fold increase compared to other Sundays. Small changes in decibel levels can have a big effect on hearing, he explains. bit.ly/4aQFXNw

Giving consumers easy access to health information is pivotal in helping people make the best health-based decisions for themselves. My @UMichSPH colleague Jennifer A. Garner, PhD RD discusses the public health impact of front-of-package labeling.

Contamination in our environment can be devastating to our health, as my colleague @JustinColacino tells the The New York Times. It is incredibly important that after disasters, resources and expertise are invested in these affected communities.

A moving personal story from my @UMichSPH colleague @minalrp. In the US 805,000 people have heart attacks each year. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates 80% of these cases are preventable -- a staggering gap between what's possible and what's happening.

Pollen seasons continue to get longer and more intense. A study from my colleagues in @UMichSPH, @UMISR and @UMEngineering found that high levels of certain pollen were linked to increased risk of death from breathing problems.
