@CarterL_J @FLFDevNetwork That's amazing that you are doing this! Balancing research and babies has been no easy task. I'm not in the UK but if you are reaching out to the wider community, I'd love to discuss it with you

It's been a long time coming, but our paper on the use of metal-tagged #microplastics to track their movement through #porousmedia is finally out! This was from my work in Prof. Ranville's lab at CO School of Mines. Check it out! rdcu.be/dHXU5

Scanning through NPR headlines today, this came up from a recent PNAS article. This is public service announcement to please stop (or at least limit) buying bottled water, or you'll be drinking plastic #microplastics #BottledWater

I'm slowly emerging back into the world of science from maternity leave. Despite the current uncertain situation here in Israel, I'm at least happy to see that our paper originating from my former PhD project was just published, led by Tuvia Turkeltaub-

I'm featured in the local "Friday in the Golan" newspaper this week! (Every week they focus on a different reseracher). Mostly the article talks about my work on microplastic, but the picture is taken during a project on pathogen dynamics in the Meshushim stream. #reserachlife

This week in "Friday in the Golan," Dr. Emily Tran talks about her journey from the US to Northern Israel and her work on microplastics and other particles in the environment. igolan.co.il/pdfonline/18/

Maybe we should be concentrating on reducing our plastic usage rather than recycling it...

Some of my favorite presentations are to those from completely outside my field, and introducing them to the importance of environmental contamination reserach. Yesterday I got to present to undergrad students from France- Bienvenue en Israël!

Got to host @NirWaterLab on a visit up to us in the North on Thursday. Thanks for stopping by!

A great thread from an organization I follow, which aims to improve participation and outlook for mothers working in #STEMreserach. I feel this daily, and I bet most other young #mothersinSTEM out there agree.

What do you see are the biggest challenges as a woman in a STEMM career? As we approach #IWD2023 we are discussing how we are #crackingthecode in #STEMM. #WomeninScience share your thoughts below. @Momademia @AcademicParents @AWISNational @500womensci @parentinscience @camawise

@Emilys_MicroLab Interesting 👍，Could you pls explain how did you label the MPs with fluorescence?
English
Having fun looking at fluorescent images of #microplastics that I extracted from soils, though quantification can be a pain 😜

Our institute is growing and we need a little more help on the administrative side, please share!
מכון שלנו גדל ואנחנו מחפשים עזרה בצד האדמיניסטרטיבי. תשתפו בבקשה!
Shaked is on French news, discussing increasing water stress in Israel and the plan to channel desalinated water into the Kinneret as a resilience mechanism to climate change.

Looking for a post-doc for a fascinating project.
Please spread the word... 🙏🙏

Honored to present today at the Israeli soil society conference and chat about the work I did out at Colorado School of Mines on microplastic transport.

We are looking for an enthusiastic student to come work with us on a funded multi institutional, multidisciplinary research about Leptospirosis in the environment, its transport, fate and sources using advanced hydrological and microbiological methods. Come research with us!

We are looking for new researchers in the most beautiful spot in the north (in our opinion). If you are finishing your PhD or PostDoc, please get in touch

It was world soils day yesterday, so in a day-late celebration, I'm trying my hand at digesting soil organic matter to quantify microplastics. All those articles make it seem easy😅
