Introduction from Nina Kulacki Dear EHS Family, As we head into Spring and look forward to all the brightness and beauty that comes with it, I’m delighted to share with you our EHS Spring 2023 Newsletter.

In EHS, we pride ourselves on community and collaboration. The exciting research, updates, and accomplishments represented by our faculty, students, alumni, and staff in this issue highlight these efforts and values. As a proud member of this EHS community, I am always happy to shine a spotlight on our members.

We look forward to the planned ending of the COVID-19 national public health emergency on May 11, 2023.

This unprecedented time put public health more prominently on everyone’s minds and made the work at Mailman and in EHS even more urgent and timely. Thank you to everyone for their efforts to keep our School safe during this time. We continue to be diligent and consider the possible risks of attending in-person events.

Whether we’re meeting in person or in hybrid format, your EHS Family remains committed to providing our community with high-quality education, research interactions, and experiences.

On a personal note, I would like to address the lovely tribute from students and alumni – led by Hannah Davin and Brandy Coleman – at the end of this issue. I can’t thank you enough for your kind words (and for sneaking this project by me until the final edits of this newsletter). I am humbled and (almost) speechless. I can’t begin to explain how much I enjoyed reading the beautiful comments. You all are why I do what I do.

As our May graduation approaches, I’m reminded of just how bittersweet it is to see you all finish this exciting milestone. I am so very proud to have been a small part of your journey, and I can’t wait to see the exciting things you do next. For those who will walk at graduation, just know that I will be waiting on the other side of the dais to congratulate you again (and even share a hug!). I’ll always be there, and so will your EHS family!

Once you’re EHS Fam, you’re always EHS Fam. 😊 Here's to another great academic year and a wonderful Spring, N

Nina Kulacki, MBA Director, Academic Programs & PrIMER

Updates: New Faculty

Dr. Robbie M. Parks Dr. Parks will be an Assistant Professor in the EHS Department as of April 2023.

Many will already know Dr. Parks as he has been an Earth Institute Post-Doctoral Research Scientist for some time. He has published detailed evidence on the health impacts of hurricanes and other tropical cyclones, as well as climaterelated associations with deaths of despair, injuries, mental health-related outcomes, and life expectancy.

In February 2022, Dr. Parks was awarded a K99/R00 titled "Novel Assessments of the Health Impacts of Tropical Cyclones," to continue his research in this area.

During his PhD, Dr. Parks created and co-chaired the first citizens' climate assembly in Westminster, London, which successfully petitioned the local council to declare a climate emergency. He also enjoys playing music and spent time writing music in an alternative rock group, playing UK's Glastonbury Festival.

The Agents of Change in Environmental Justice program announced its latest cohort of 14 scholars of early career scientists from historically marginalized and underrepresented groups, including three fellows from Columbia EHS, one of whom is Dr. Robbie M. Parks! You can listen to his podcast contribution here.

We're excited to see Dr. Parks continue his career with us!

Dr. Ricky Perera Dr. Perera was recently interviewed by Early Learning Nation magazine in an article titled, “An Environmental Health Scientist’s Recipe for Giving the Next Generation a Safe Future” on February 7, 2023.

“Dr. Perera’s work helps us to see more clearly that dangerous planetary change is the most pressing global threat there is to healthy human development in the earliest years of life. Mitigating climate change, adapting to its unavoidable impacts, and building the resilience of societies by building the resilience of our young children is the human development challenge of this century.”

Dr. Ami Zota Dr. Zota’s co-authored “Beauty Inside Out: Examining Beauty Product Use Among Diverse Women and Femme-Identifying Individuals in Northern Manhattan and South Bronx Through an Environmental Justice Framework,” which was featured in Inside Climate News’ article titled The ‘Environmental Injustice of Beauty’: The Role That Pressure to Conform Plays In Use of Harmful Hair, Skin Products Among Women of Color on February 27, 2023.

“There are many social, cultural, historical factors that drive our beliefs about beauty and that what society deems is beautiful is essential to influencing how people choose to present themselves... And that often, women of color are kind of inherently outside of preferred beauty norms, which are rooted in Eurocentric white femininity. And so, kind of as an adoptive response, some women of color end up using more toxic products to kind of conform to Eurocentric beauty norms.”

Dr. Lariah Edwards Dr. Lariah Edwards was the first author of the paper “Beauty Inside Out: Examining Beauty Product Use Among Diverse Women and FemmeIdentifying Individuals in Northern Manhattan and South Bronx Through an Environmental Justice Framework” featured in the Inside Climate News’ article titled “The ‘Environmental Injustice of Beauty’: The Role That Pressure to Conform Plays In Use of Harmful Hair, Skin Products Among Women of Color” on February 27, 2023.

“I thought it was wonderful to see that our data suggests that fewer women are now currently using chemical straighteners, particularly Black women,” said Edwards. “We saw that a lot of Black women said they have used it in their lifetime, but fewer said they’ve used it in the past year. I think that is a great indication that Black women are continuing to embrace their natural hair textures.”

Updates: Students

Irene Martinez-Morata, PhD Candidate Irene’s manuscript entitled "Nationwide geospatial analysis of county racial and ethnic composition and public drinking water arsenic and uranium", was recently published in Nature Communications.

In this work, she identified racial and ethnic disparities in exposure to drinking water arsenic and uranium at the county level in the US. Even after accounting for socioeconomic status and education, her team identified that higher proportions of Hispanic/Latino and American Indian and Alaskan Native residents in a county were significantly associated with higher concentrations of these contaminants in public drinking water. This association was also identified for non-Hispanic Black communities in the Southwestern US. Irene’s paper was highlighted as NIEHS paper of the month in February 2023 and in the Editorial Board at Nature Communications, as one of the most influential papers in the field of social sciences over the past years. U.S. News also featured this paper in an article titled, “In U.S., Minority Communities More Likely to Have Water Contaminated by Toxic Metals.”

Updates: Alumni Dr. Richard Evoy, MPH ‘16 As an epidemiologist for NIOSH, Richard also serves as a staff lead for the U.S. Committee on the Marine Transportation System's Mariner Mental Health working group. On January 11th, this working group hosted a virtual discussion on the "Challenges and Solutions to Mariner Mental Health and Wellbeing."

Kendall Kruchten, MPH ‘22 and Eleanor Medley, MPH ‘22 Eleanor and Kendall completed their MPH practicum with Dr. Julie Herbstman in the Columbia Center for Children's Environmental Health. They created and distributed a nationwide survey that sought to uncover how children's makeup and body products are used. They also worked alongside the national nonprofit, Earthjustice in designing the survey. This work will hopefully be used to strengthen regulations around these products. Kendall and Eleanor’s work was published in the International Journal for Environment and Public Health and news sources such as the New York Post.

“There is increasing evidence of harmful ingredients often included in adult cosmetics and CMBPs, and children are more biologically susceptible to the effects of toxicants.”

- Eleanor Medley “In this context, it is important to uncover how makeup and body products are being used by children to characterize risk and improve safety.”

Spotlight: Students

Kat Morgan, MPH 1st Year Kat is the principal author of a report about Indigenous Agroecology and Pulse Production in Africa, which she developed at the Rockefeller Foundation. The report highlights the need for agroecological practices to ensure food security in Africa due to fertilizer and agricultural chemical supply chain disruptions and was developed with colleagues from the Rockefeller Foundation and the New York Botanical Gardens. Kat presented her work in a lightning talk at the New York Botanical Gardens in December and is currently preparing the report for submission to the FAO Agroecology Hub to inform future research, policy development, and project funding.

This spring, Kat created Oh Crop!: a Public Health Podcast that promotes environmental justice in public health for health equity and sustainable food systems. Episode one covers theory, while episode two features an interview with celebrity food writer and activist Mark Bittman. She chose to podcast to simplify these complex public health issues and encourage community-based advocacy through storytelling.

Interested parties may listen to her show via major podcasting platforms or reference the accompanying deliverable. This project was developed for the Lerner Center Health Messaging for Justice Student Competition with faculty sponsorship from Dr. Ami Zota.

A Special Thank You to Our Director of Academic Programs, Nina Kulacki The students of the EHS Department wanted to take a minute to extend our heartfelt thanks to Nina Kulacki, Director of Academic Programs, for all that she does for the students and faculty within the EHS Department. The department would not be what it is today without Nina’s hard work and dedication to ensure all students are provided with the tailored toolkit they need to succeed both academically and professionally.

Nina’s contributions have proven to be invaluable as she continually strives to inspire and empower us all. From organizing alumni events to arranging inspiring lectures (and let’s not forget her willingness to coordinate a holiday party that exceeds all expectations), she is always looking for ways to strengthen our close-knit EHS community. Nina wears many hats, such as those of a beloved advisor, mentor, instructor, as well as academic counselor. However, above all, she is a trusted confidante. Nina’s readiness to take time out of her day (and often nights) to aid students with their needs and equip them to reach their full potential, is unparalleled.

By coordinating networking events as well as preparing a semester-long professional development curriculum, Nina ensures all students are prepared professionally as they enter the workforce. She teaches students how to bolster their professional communication skills, build a strong resume, and stand out in a competitive market. The skills taught during this seminar transfer to so many aspects of a student’s public health education and would not be possible without her. In addition, Nina is an excellent communicator and effective liaison between students, faculty, and staff.

Students are often asked throughout their time at the Mailman School of Public Health to contemplate what it means to be a leader in public health and how we can incorporate leadership skills into our everyday lives. We are encouraged to discuss leadership characteristics such as kindness, consistency, selflessness, accountability, creativity, empathy as well as determination and how these can be embodied in our everyday lives. For the students of the EHS Department, Nina is the perfect example of a leader as she personifies all these characteristics and many more. Most importantly, she is a lighthouse, always shining bright to guide us and streamline our educational experience. Nina: the students will never be able to say thank you enough for all you do for us, but we hope this is a good start. We are so lucky to have you.

- Hannah Davin (MPH, ‘23)

"Nina is one of my most favorite people! She truly cares about the wellbeing of the EHS students and has been a great source of support over the years. I probably wouldn't be where I am today without her.

She sets the bar incredibly high for all others with her hard work and dedication. I have nothing but the utmost respect for Nina and I'm glad that we have had the opportunity to stay in touch since graduating!“ – Kyle Colonna (MPH, ‘18) “Thanks to your exceptional leadership and personal example, I have learned the invaluable lessons of hard work, dedication, and perseverance. Your unwavering support has given me the confidence to pursue my goals and chase my dreams. Thank you so much for all you do!”

– Lauren Lopez (MPH, ‘24) “Thank you, Nina, for being such an incredible support before, during, and after my time at Mailman! Even before I was officially a student, Nina helped organize a personalized tour for me, which confirmed that EHS at Mailman was the right choice for me. I deeply appreciate Nina's leadership and guidance and how she is always available to chat through any concerns or celebrate achievements. Ever thankful to Nina for making EHS a home away from home. She is a superstar and champion of students!”

– Pei Yang Hsieh (MPH, ‘19)

“Nina cares about every single student that walks through the EHS Department's doors - doesn't matter what you look like, what your degree program is, or if you're extroverted or introverted she will do everything in her power to help you succeed and obtain your goals. The EHS Department is made better every day because of Nina's persistence, energy, and drive - thank you for being a friend, role model, and ally!”

– Stella Keck (MPH, ‘19)

“Nina helped me repair a stressful mix-up with my payment plan for school! She connected me with the right people, made sure I was heard, and I truly don’t know what I would have done without her help.”

– Emelia Suljic (MPH, ‘23)

“I am so grateful that Nina is always so encouraging and approachable. I can tell she truly cares and wants everyone to be well and succeed. Her support has been a highlight of my experience in the EHS department!

– Ava Chow (MPH 4+1, ‘24) “Nina was my mentor extraordinaire and was vital to my professional and personal success at Mailman. Even during busy times, she always made time to chat and had an open ear. I appreciated her honesty, humor, and support through the years. I'll always remember her whenever I see hot pink and the Baltimore Ravens. Thank you, Nina!

Miss you!”

– Robyn Lee (MPH, ‘16)

“It is an honor to be able to offer my thoughts regarding Nina’s contributions to EHS from my own alumna experience. Nina has helped us EHS grads to engage more in Mailman activities through her insightful and encouraging communication. She has been tireless in her dedication. Through her demonstration of leadership, I gained the confidence to make a bequest to Mailman for use in the Climate and Health program.”

– Denise Drace-Brownell, JD, (MPH ‘93) “Nina is an incredible champion in the EHS department. As SEA advisor, she never hesitated to go to battle for the E-board and made sure we got what we needed to have successful events and engagement; as a student mentor, she has does everything possible to make sure we had all the support necessary to get ourselves to graduation; and as the pseudo EHS social chair, Nina has thrown the best parties and made this department, hands down, the best place to be at Mailman. Thank you so much, Nina, for all you do in support of me, my peers, and the department as a whole; it goes without saying, the EHS department wouldn’t be anywhere near as awesome if you weren’t around.“ – Jaemie Bennet (MPH, ‘23)

"Nina has many superpowers, but my favorite one is her ability to make time for others. As busy as that woman is, she shows up when and where she is needed.

EHS is THAT much more special because Nina is a part of it. Ask somebody! Thank you, Nina. I hope Post Malone comes to his senses and realizes that he can have it ALL with you. Cheers!"

– Saoimanu D. Sope (MPH ‘21)

“I transferred to EHS halfway through my first semester. Nina was one of the first people I talked to about transferring and I was nervous about making such a big leap from what I already knew, but she immediately made me feel so welcome and a part of the EHS community and really solidified my decision to join the department.“ – Sophie Ideker, (MPH, ‘24)
