About This Podcast

What happens when a spike in ozone pollution is followed by a heatwave a few days later? This episode digs into a five year hospital study from Nanjing, China, tracking nearly twenty thousand neurological disorder admissions to find out whether these back to back extreme weather events hit the brain harder than either one alone.
