The
Epidemiology Monitor - April
2026
Editor's Note:
The Roundup issue is discussed
in our first article this month. Long time readers will
remember that
glyphosate is a topic
we've visited several times over the years. You'll note
the infographic at the end of the piece covers decades of
this topic. Next, Your Local Epidemiologist has provided
us with a piece on gun and domestic violence along with
the systems that are failing us. We're also pleased to
print a reader opinion piece on new horizons in
epidemiology
Last month we were contacted by the family of Dr. Manny
Schoenback with an interesting proposition. They had
written a book about his career focusing on his work at
Harvard, Johns Hopkins and the Army Epidemiological Board
and they thought it would be of interest to our readers.
It's a wonderful story and fascinating look back at
epidemiologists during World War II and definitely
something you should consider adding to your summer
reading list along with it's companion book about Manny
and the woman who stood by his side.
29 FREE BOOKS
This month we have 29 free books and the donor is offering
to box multiples for one shipping & handling fee for those
who are interested. Do you have a bookshelf to clear but
you absolutely don't want to toss the books that cost you
dearly into the trash? Let us know and we'll print them
in the hopes of finding a home for them. Just email us at
michele@epimonitor.net and we'll talk you through the
logistics of the program.
We are
starting to hear from many of you with articles that you'd
like us to consider publishing. We are always interested
in your offerings and are finding your peers are really
enjoying them. Please also consider nominating people for
our profile series, writing a review of a book, or letting
us know about individuals whose accomplishment should be
added to our monthly Notes on People feature.
As always,
we continue to provide you with our popular monthly word
game feature, Notes on People, an overview of what we are
reading from the public media, and a listing of near term
upcoming events. Ask us about the sponsorship
opportunities for these standard monthly features - it
offers you great exposure for your event, institution,
book or other item of interest to our readers!
Until next
month - stay safe and busy!
