Glyphosate and Eastmond in the News
Glyphosate has been in the news a lot over the past couple of years. Most recently as the result of a jury verdict that awarded a very large sum to the plaintiff. In 2016, Dr. David Eastmond, an ETOX faculty member, served on a WHO committee that conducted a fairly exhaustive review of the toxicological information on glyphosate. As a result, over the past couple of years, he has been interviewed by a number of media outlets about glyphosate and cancer. Below are links to some recent interviews.
