Are you ready to help shape the future of the @RITscience at the @RITtigers? RIT’s College of Science is hiring 4 tenure-track faculty, one each in the areas of neuroscience, mathematics, physics, and ecology and evolutionary biology. These positions are supported by the Simons Foundation Empire Faculty Fellowship program, providing $3.3 million to advance research and innovation across New York State (rit.edu/news/simons-em…) Learn more and apply: rit.edu/careers Neuroscience – 9935BR #jobDetails=1581603_5291" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sjobs.brassring.com/TGnewUI/Search… Physics – AI/ML – 9923BR #jobDetails=1581509_5291" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sjobs.brassring.com/TGnewUI/Search… Ecology and Evolutionary Biology – 9912BR #jobDetails=1581530_5291" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sjobs.brassring.com/TGnewUI/Search… Math – pharmacometrics modeling/pharmacokinetic pharmacodynamic (PK/PD)- 9942BR #jobDetails=1581708_5291" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sjobs.brassring.com/TGnewUI/Search… Please share, and you are more than welcome to contact us if you have any questions!

The trash is hiding, but so are we. Stealth mode activated, target food wrappers acquired, cleanup complete. We are hosting more #communityscience #litter #cleanups this fall! Stay tuned for our fall schedule with the @SenecaParkZoo and Walking for Rochester!

We are hiring a Postdoc to work with our plastics research group at RIT. Come join us!

We are so proud of our undergraduate students, Isabelle, Andrew, Hana, and Benicio! They have done incredible work this summer which they presented at the undergraduate research symposium last week. We're so grateful for all their amazing work! #undergraduateresearch #RIT

Last Thursday we launched our plastic limnocorral experiment at Tait Preserve! We have been working on this for a year now so we're very excited to start getting results! Stay tuned to hear more about this experiment and what we find. #PlasticPollution #Microplastics

Congrats to Jay, who finished his MS degree with us last year and continues to do great work!

I had a great time at #iaglr25 and the panel discussion was a lot of fun.

We were away last week in Milwaukee for the Annual @IAGLR conference. Our team presented many posters and talks related to our #microplastics work, so we'll be sharing photos all week. Mira Ghosh and Kaeti Stoss presented about community engagement in our #LOMP project. #IAGLR25

Aaaaaand we are off. Final year of adding plastic into one of our lakes to discover the impact on the whole ecosystem. Watch this space for more...

Catching up from last week, CPE member @achristytyler was quoted in this The New York Times article on what you need to know about #microplastics: nytimes.com/.../microplast…... @RITtigers @RITscience

Our LittaTrap program is expanding to Syracuse! @enviropod_group

Congrats to all of the graduates from our @RITPlastics team! @achristytyler

Our research group was featured on the cover of the spring issue of the @RITtigers University Magazine! Story is here: rit.edu/news/microplas… @RITscience @HudsonLabRIT @achristytyler @mattyhoff14 @stevendayritbme @NOAADebris @nyseagrant

Come and see us at Imagine RIT this weekend! We will be in Gosnell A261. We can’t wait to show you what we have been working on! 🐅🔬🥼#microplastics #science #plastic @RITtigers @RITscience

Our team is involved in lots of research and education related to #plasticpollution in the #GreakLakes. Watch some of our interdisciplinary team members talk about their work. @RITtigers @RITscience @mattyhoff14 @achristytyler @NOAADebris

Last week, @achristytyler spoke with @SELFmagazine about steps you can take to reduce microplastic exposure in your daily life. #microplastics #LOMP @RITtigers @RITscience @UR_IHHE self.com/story/how-to-a…

Both @RITtigers and @UR_IHHE members of our Lake Ontario Microplastic Center are in San Diego for a meeting with other Centers for Oceans and Human Health. #microplastics #LOMP #greatlakes #lakeontario @RITscience

New paper from our #pELAstic study @IISD_ELA on the response of yellow perch to #microplastics added to large limnocorrals suspended in a boreal lake. Congrats on getting this work in press @GCovernton!

Remembering a giant of meteorology: On the Front Page blog, AMS President Anjuli Bamzai pays tribute to Eugenia Kalnay (1942-2024), a driving force in weather and climate prediction--and a beloved leader and mentor to many. Read more: bit.ly/4cTjdvK

Excellent work by @RITtigers @RITscience faculty members Dr. Christy Tyler @achristytyler, Dr. Matt Hoffman @mattyhoff14, and Dr. Nathan Eddingsaas. Well done and I wish you all the best with this very important project. RIT recommended for additional federal funding for stormwater debris interception rit.edu/news/rit-recom…
