It seems like just yesterday researcher Sofia was in Vancouver interviewing PaRx prescribers for the guide. It's been an honour to serve on @resonatenbt.bsky.social Expert Advisory Board — and as this €6.3 million project wraps up in 2027, I can't wait to share more of our groundbreaking research.

Years of repeated exposure to heatwaves may accelerate ageing, particularly among manual workers, rural residents and people from communities with fewer air conditioners, according to a study published in @natclimate.nature.com: spklr.io/63325BGAk5 #Climate #ClimateChange #Ageing
spklr.io
Long-term impacts of heatwaves on accelerated ageing - Nature Climate Change
Ageing is linked to environmental factors. This study shows that although participants gradually adapted to heat over time, cumulative exposure to heatwaves had stable and adverse impacts on ageing, especially among manual workers, rural residents and those with limited air conditioning.
