A great session on emerging pollutants by @onehealth_nuig, including a presentation by PestMan researcher John McGinley

A presentation to the @onehealth_nuig annual conference recently on our EPA Ireland and Dept of Agriculture, Food and the Marine funded project on #pesticide management. You can view the slides at slideshare.net/MarkHealy2/cen…

Scouting locations for placing our interventions for #pesticide remediation in two catchments today. Installation in early 2022! Alma Siggins EPA Ireland Dept of Agriculture, Food and the Marine Teagasc Ag Catchments

The use of the EPA Research News Maps app to help identify the potential locations of our #pesticide interventions. You can see a demonstration here: youtu.be/Tn_BNZePA_8 Teagasc Ag Catchments @onehealth_nuig

Another video showing the methodology behind the selection of optimal intervention locations for #pesticides. This time it's the Corduff catchment in Monaghan. You can listen to my soothing commentary here :-) : youtu.be/L_MrbPJcWHI @onehealth_nuig EPA Research News

First soil collected, transported to @nuigalway and currently air drying in the lab on a heated pad. Shane will be using this in a column study to investigate the impact of pesticides on soil microorganisms.

Our homemade auto sampler in action! This set-up is capable of measuring #pesticide adsorption realistically and within a very short period of time. See nuigalway.ie/media/gene/fil… for further info on method. EPA Research News

The first paper from our EPA Research News and Dept of Agriculture, Food and the Marine funded #pesticides is now online and open access at bsssjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/su… @onehealth_nuig

A short video of our small-scale column study is here: youtu.be/zNwWYwzNQV4. This method can accurately, and realistically, measure the ability of media to adsorb pesticides. You can read about the theory here: nuigalway.ie/media/gene/fil…

The second paper from our PestMan project has just been published. You can read it open access here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @onehealth_nuig

Congratulations to John McGinley, who defended his PhD thesis today. EPA Research News

I am looking for an enthusiastic and motivated PhD student, on a fully funded scholarship (€22,000/year). This project will develop novel adsorption based biotechnological systems using mixed microbial communities. nature.com/naturecareers/… Appy by 15th December 2023.

Our EPA Ireland PestMan_NUIG researcher John McGinley graduated this afternoon. Congrats, Dr Dr McGinley (it’s John’s second PhD)! One Health University of Galway
