Excited to see this change. For far too long these agencies have been completely controlled by big pharma. I'm hoping to see answers to many immune disorders brought to light.

Great, almost poetic explanation of NIEHS: "agency designed to track environmental fingerprints across human biology. "Thank you for making it clear NIEHS now has a qualified leader with the potential to leave his mark and make a significant improvement in children's health.

The appointment of a scientist that can connect correlation and causation to policy changes that promote health (not enlarge the budget to study a problem into oblivion) is truly remarkable. I wish him the best of luck and that he finds those within his agency that are like-minded to solve problems.

The recent publication of Hulscher at al. (https://zenodo.org/records/17451259?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email) looking at "McCullough Foundation Report: Determinants of Autism Spectrum Disorder" should support and spur immediate and effective changes to how federal agencies assess the risks to our children via the environment we have created.

Bravo!

Not only is he clearly highly qualified, but he's damn good looking, too.

LOL. I'm old enough to be his mother, but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate.

Thank God for RFK Jr. and President Trump. Without them this would not be happening. Best President in my lifetime….from my Canadian perspective!

Yes indeed. But let's thank the voters who decided enough is enough. I suppose, in one back handed way, we can also thank the Bill Gates/WHO/deep state medical complex who overstepped the bounds and woke the voters up.

This sounds like great news, the elephant in the room, environmental causes, will get the emphasis:

“an academic physician-scientist with deep cellular expertise is taking the helm of America’s environmental brain trust—a shift from genomics-era systems leadership to glial-focused molecular investigation.”
