At least 16 termination letters have already been sent — and hundreds more are coming, people inside NIH tell me.

I continue to be astounded by the impacts of #airpollution on multiple body systems. Especially as we enter an administration of increased resource extraction and fossil fuel use, let us keep in clear view what it's doing to our bodies and those of the ones we love.
