TFW you share a cool #breastmilk science factπŸ€±πŸ½πŸ”¬ on social media, and you get:

☝🏼 "But what about moms who CAN'T breastfeed?"
πŸ€” β€œThis 'data-driven' economist says #breastfeeding doesn’t matter.”
πŸ“± "I read that BFHI starves babies..."

Talking about breastfeeding and human milk science ain't easy! But the tools of #SciComm can help! Our #HMI26 workshop will teach you to share #lactation research with empathy AND accuracy.

πŸ“† March 2026 | πŸ“UC San Diego
