Was digging through my phone looking for something else and stumbled across a screenshot of this masterpiece. I thought it was gone forever; RIP @malscrung

My (100% vaccinated) lab had an all the way back to normal (2019 style) lab bbq this weekend and it was delightful

Glad to have this out, and for the chance to work with my colleague Amy Childress on this one! Congrats to our students Lily Shi, Sophia Plata, and Marco Kleimans 🎉

Checkout our latest publication exploring transformation of antibiotics and links to microbial activity during anaerobic treatment. Shockingly my first paper with Daniel McCurry and always wonderful to collaborate with Lauren Stadler and Moustapha Harb! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Honest question for journal editors: how late does a review have to get (at let's say a normal/non-rapid format journal) before you get like, mad? Assuming that the review is high-quality Kris McNeill Fernando Rosario-Ortiz Ameet Pinto @waterwiggi @lee_blaney

The work of excellent students from the Sonny Astani Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering was recently recognized at the annual Research Assistant and Teaching Assistant Awards. bit.ly/2Zxd1tW

We recently announced an ENE faculty search in all research areas and at all levels! aeesp.org/jobs/4113

Pandemic project complete! In a fun two-year collaboration, Sungeun Lim and Urs von Gunten from Eawag, Lily Shi, and I wrote a critical review on ozonation of organics. Open access thanks to Eawag! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

We’re in a drought, it’s bad, & you’ve probably heard serious water restrictions are here. Californians need to conserve more water—but besides restricting water use, what else should we do? I spoke with Daniel McCurry USC Viterbi School about LA's water future: laist.com/news/climate-e…

On this week’s Science Magazine cover, Bill Mitch’s group gets to the bottom of a dark sunscreen mystery: anemones unwittingly turn oxybenzone sunblock into a glucoside conjugate that insidiously acts as a photooxidant instead science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Talked to Melissa Harris-Perry about water reuse on The Takeaway 🎙 this week! 💧♻️🚰

It's long frustrated me that water contains 8 mg/L of a potent oxidant (dissolved O2), but it doesn't do much for us (abiotically). We figured out a use for it!

It's clear California has a #water problem. Ongoing drought..strict new water rules. But experts say conservation alone can’t solve our water woes. We need to reuse more water--even for drinking. My latest on #potablereuse & #drought resilience 🧵: laist.com/news/climate-e…

Have had a go (baduk) board in my office for 5 years waiting for someone to take me up on a game, and it finally happened! 😅 A pleasure hosting Jaehong Kim for an excellent seminar today

Some news

Excited that this joint effort with Daniel McCurry is out in the world! Be careful using alcohol-based stock solutions: we found that they can bias chlorination kinetics results and also form carbonyl compounds.

Super nice work in Science Magazine by Julian Fairey July Laszakovits Kris McNeill and others to solve a decades-old water chemistry mystery: science.org/doi/full/10.11… also I got to write a short perspective about it: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
