"these researchers published a paper on something that literally any of us could have told you 🙄" ok well my supervisors wont let me write something in my thesis unless I can back it up with a citation so maybe it's a good thing that they're amplifying your voice to the scientific community in a way that prevents people from writing off your experiences as annecdotal evidence

big report i worked on is finally out but it's on the city website which is truly impossible to navigate. idk what comms is doing to promote it. there's like a weird political thing of how the majority of the work was done by a group within the commission and they want it to be separate from the commission's website/comms even though they are part of us and other departments worked on it? i don't totally understand. but my boss sent us a link and was like "here it is!" so it's cool to look at

Protecting trees might not seem like a public health strategy, but new research suggests it could be – especially in the tropics. A Stanford University-led study published May 28 in Landscape Ecology shows that in Costa Rica, even modest patches of tree cover can reduce the presence of invasive mosquito species known to transmit diseases like dengue fever. The illness often brings flu-like symptoms and can escalate to severe bleeding, organ failure, and even death without proper medical care. The findings can inform land use decisions and tree preservation strategies in rural areas, according to the researchers.
