Caution, Drivers! Children Present: Traffic, Pollution, and Infant Health by Knittel, Christopher R, Miller, Douglas L., Sanders, Nicholas J.

“…Using an instrumental variables approach that exploits the relationship between traffic, ambient weather conditions, and various pollutants, our findings suggest that ambient pollution levels, specifically particulate matter, still have large impacts on weekly infant mortality rates. Our results also illustrate the importance of weather controls in measuring pollution’s impact on infant mortality.…”

Climate change, mortality, and adaptation : evidence from annual fluctuations in weather in the US by Deschênes, Olivier, Greenstone, Michael

“…These overall estimates are statistically indistinguishable from zero, although there is evidence of statistically significant increases in mortality rates for some subpopulations, particularly infants. As the canonical Becker-Grossman health production function model highlights, the full welfare impact will be reflected in health outcomes and increased consumption of goods that preserve individuals' health. …”

Mapping early social development in rodents through the lens of interpersonal synchrony by Ham, Gao Xiang, Lim, Kai En, See, Wei An, Augustine, George James, Leong, Victoria

“…However, before rodent models can be leveraged to dissect parent-infant synchrony mechanisms, we first need to understand the forms of parent-pup synchrony that occur during rodent development, and their trajectory of change over time. …”
