I presented some of the results of our study on plastics, Hg, and PAHs in the Matagorda Bay System at the just concluded 2023 Texas Plastic Pollution Symposium University of Houston-Clear Lake. It's good to know what policymakers & industries are doing to address plastic pollution problems in Texas.

Speaking at the SETAC South Central annual meeting last week held @University of North Texas in Denton on @microplastic extraction and characterization in the Lavaca Bay. A good time hanging out and sharing innovative ideas with colleagues.

Call for abstracts: The session 3.09 - Microplastics in Africa: Why Accurate Data Is Critical for Protecting the Environment and Public Health is currently scheduled under track “3. Environmental Assessment and Management”. #SETACAfrica

Everyone should know Diane's story!🧡 Congrats to Diane Wilson for winning this year's The Goldman Environmental Prize and shining a much needed spotlight on the harms of #plastic production around the globe. #breakfreefromplastic

Quantification of microplastics in complex environmental matrices remains a major challenge in MP research. We developed a novel method that reduced the MP extraction time in particulate organic matter from 5 days reported in the literature to about 2 hrs. aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

Thanks, Win. We believe the new method will significantly advance microplastic research. U.S. EPA may want to revise its protocol based on this novel method.

Glad to see this paper out! Huge game changer for extracting microplastics from complex environmental matrices. I can also say! It works amazingly!

We are hiring! The Biocolloids Lab at McGill (biocolloid.mcgill.ca) is looking for a talented postdoctoral researcher to contribute to our research on #microplastics and #nanoplastics.

I had the opportunity of presenting my latest study on characterisation of Eco-corona formation on microplastics using unsupervised statistical techniques at the ongoing SETAC conference in Louisville, Kentucky. It was a great time meeting and sharing with friends and colleagues.

It's poster day! Stop by poster 98 to see our updated report on plastic pollution within the Matagorda Bay systems and our recommendations. #SETAClouisville SETAC Microplastics Interest Group @SETAC

Our fall webinar is happening THIS TUESDAY (11/28) at 3:00 pm EST! We'll be joined by 4 awesome speakers (details in 🧵) & provide opportunities for you to give feedback on interest group activities. All are welcome, DM for link to join. You won't want to miss it!

We have 4 PhD positions open in #microplastics, #nanoplastics, plastic additives, and modelling. Deadline approaching!!! Have a look, starting with PhD1 😉- nanoplastics! recruitingapp-5128.de.umantis.com/Vacancies/2875…

Our sister agency, Algalita, is hiring an Education Coordinator! This part-time position will oversee and facilitate various aspects of the organization’s diverse offering of educational activities and programming. 🧵

First fieldwork in the year. #Microplastics sampling from stormwater.
