Kicking off the holiday season w/ our group party - we did brunch The Flying Pig, secret Santa & tacky gift exchange + dessert potluck! I'm so lucky to have these wonderful people in my team. Thanks for a great year & looking forward to the next Marcus Johns @Ferreira_ElisaS

I know-ANOTHER nanocellulose review but this one is truly international & covers up-to-date research & commercialization efforts related to healthcare, water, biocomposites & energy. A really fun team, thanks to Steve Eichhorn University of Bristol & Marcus Johns link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Want to know where #nanocellulose can make some of the biggest impacts? This review covers it all! Thanks to Steve Eichhorn Bristol Composites Institute for organizing and Emily D. Cranston - Research Group for involving me link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Looking forward to this talk by Caio Gomide Otoni at UBC tomorrow!

Great evening spent at the inaugural JOSEF BBQ hosted by Emily D. Cranston - Research Group and Orlando Rojas with a whole load of UBC BioProducts Institute

It's taken 10 years of trying but today I won a research poster prize! Thanks to the judges at #SMARTcon2022 hosted by UBC BioProducts Institute A truly enjoyable experience and great to meet so many researchers in the area of #sustainable #materials

nature.com/articles/s4156… "Our results suggest that the professoriate is, and has remained, accessible disproportionately to the socioeconomically privileged", which somewhat sums up the whole problem with #academia

Quite possibly the best and worst #review I have ever received for a manuscript! (The journal editor sent it to a third reviewer unsurprisingly) #AcademicTwitter

Tonight is #ccec2022 Vancouver's poster session! Come see these smiling faces & all the posters in our UBC BioProducts Institute Bioproducts & Bioinspired Materials symposium (you can look at other posters too - there are >120!) Cam King @EupidioScopel Tristan R. Liu Anderson Veiga

Excited to participate in the UBC Science #MicroplasticsCluster symposium today & tomorrow! We look forward to engaging with partners on #microplastic #pollution issues and current research needs. Thanks for having us! UBC Pharm Sci UBC Chemistry UBC EOAS | eoas.ubc.ca on Bluesky UBC IRES • bsky.app/profile/ires.ubc.ca UBC Oceans (also found at ubcoceans.bsky.social)

It's the kick-off of the two day #microplasticscluster symposium University of British Columbia. Excited to see all the research being performed across campus and with industrial partners! UBC Science

Great first session of the #MicroplasticsCluster symposium looking at economic transformation, metabolmics, and #microplastic aggregation in oceans

Second session of the #MicroplasticsCluster symposium focused on analytical techniques to identify plastics from the nanoscale to the macroscale. Great talks all round! #InterferometricScattering #MagneticLevitation

Great session this afternoon with Azimuth Consulting Group identifying the key challenges with #microplastics research and developing proposals to address them #MicroplasticsCluster UBC Science

And the #MicroplasticCluster symposium is back with talks on C14 analysis, modelling of bioaccumulation, and effects on zooplankton UBC Science

The final fascinating, if slightly worrying, UBC Science #MicroplasticsCluster set of talks focused on toxicology of microfibers, #microplastic generation from dentures, and #nanoplastic neurotoxicity

The incredible researchers and industrial partners involved in the UBC Science #MicroplasticCluster Thanks to UBC Pharm Sci for hosting!

Kick off of the #NotNano Day between University of British Columbia and Université Grenoble Alpes showcasing a whole range of #research with #cellulose UBC BioProducts Institute @RI_GrenobleINP La France au Canada 🇫🇷 🇪🇺

A great initial set of talks this morning at #NotNano Day from Elizabeth Dobranzki and Emilien Freville UBC BioProducts Institute

Fascinating set of #NotNano talks on moulded cellulose, tannins and biosurfactants UBC BioProducts Institute
