From cancer to homelessness, and from environmental pollution to serving patients, students and clients, these Britons continue to benefit their communities and find success by taking action. #CreatingWithCourage albion.edu/news-article/c…

New publication! Work and paper led by @rachleads with co-authors @weinstein_lab and members, @ErtelBonnie, and me titled “ Spatial and temporal variability of microplastic abundance in estuarine intertidal sediments: Implications for sampling frequency” sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Register for this year's BGSA virtual research symposium by March 31! We've planned student research presentations, career panel, science communication seminar, keynote speaker, and more! More info and registration at untbgsa.weebly.com @BDI_UNT @UNTScience @UNTGradSchool

Rachel Leads, the most recent recipient of the Bill Glaze Graduate Fellowship in Environmental Science, is using the support to advance our understanding of aquatic toxicology to significantly improve oil spill response and recovery. Read her story here: cos.unt.edu/news/bill-glaz…

Post-Seminar Happy Hour Tomorrow!

@BrittanyHarried Yes! I tape over my mask with (clean) label tape to create a tighter seal between my face and the fabric/nose wire. Works a charm for me and makes me look only slightly crazy! #sciencetwitter

Hey Science Twitter! Has anyone found a good solution for fogging up the ocular lenses on a dissecting scope while wearing a mask in the lab? My attempts at shallow breathing and using a mask with nose wire are only slightly helpful :)

New publication comparing the degradation of conventional and #biodegradable #plastic #litter in an #estuary. We found that, by far, single-use plastic bags produce the most #microplastics as they break down in the #marine #environment. bit.ly/2DZWCDm

It is essential that the public stay up to date on vital information during the coronavirus pandemic. For that reason, Scientific American is providing free access to all of our COVID-19 coverage: bit.ly/2w6aWq9

Come grab a drink at @HarvestHouseDTX tomorrow and support student research at #UNT! @UNTScience #denton #texas #dfw #biology #science #research

Another great interview from the Weinstein Lab! Check out our publication in @AquaticSciences #MarinePollutionBulletin on the occurrence of #tire wear particles and #microplastics in the #marine environment here: bit.ly/2XPzqNx

#LivefromtheLab it’s #SaturdayNight! Ph.D. student Corey Green views newly hatched #zebrafish. #gradschool #phd #biology #SNL #UNTScience 📸: @chlorophyllrae

Interview in @NatGeo with my master’s advisor, Dr. John Weinstein, about our #tire wear particle and #microplastic research in #Charleston Harbor. Tire wear is a significant contributor to microplastic pollution globally, but awareness is currently low. nationalgeographic.com/environment/20…

Part of the Charleston, SC gang came together to smile at #SETACToronto ⁦@CSETAC⁩. It was a great meeting!

Exciting research at #SETACToronto! @austin_doug13 investigating antibiotics in urban streams of North Carolina.

New article investigating the effect of microplastic ingestion on grass shrimp immune function! bit.ly/2kQVY1k
