We’re proud to introduce this month’s #SpotlightScholar, Alicia Timme-Laragy, a developmental toxicologist in the UMass Amherst School of Public Health & Health Sciences @umasssphhs. She conducts impactful research to illuminate how early exposure to chemicals like PFAS, which are ubiquitous in the environment and consumer products, may influence organ development and long-term disease risk.

“Understanding the effects of these chemicals in early life is important because what happens in the womb can last a lifetime,” says Timme-Laragy. “These subtle changes in how organs develop and function can lead to an increased risk of disease, including diabetes and obesity, later in life.”

For adults age 65 and older, falls are the leading cause of injury and pose a serious risk to quality of life. UMass Amherst kinesiologists are approaching this age-old problem in novel ways, using brain imaging to study what causes older adults to fall more often and how that can be prevented.
