Pesticide reduction is urgent for health, biodiversity, foodsecurity and a sustainable future for farmers. The @EU_Commission withdrawal of the #Pesticide Reduction #SUR is weak and offers no solution.

Our @EPAIreland @PestMan_NUIG researcher John McGinley graduated this afternoon. Congrats, Dr Dr McGinley (it’s John’s second PhD)! @GalwayOneHealth

[Alma Siggins @almasiggins]

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.

The second paper from our PestMan project has just been published. You can read it open access here: https://t.co/8VtE8DLWTt @onehealth_nuig

A short video of our small-scale column study is here: https://t.co/pElxzUKKcC. This method can accurately, and realistically, measure the ability of media to adsorb pesticides. You can read about the theory here: https://t.co/i4fuxhl7fw

The first paper from our @EPAResearchNews and @agriculture_ie funded #pesticides is now online and open access at https://t.co/gcxZCnjdfe @onehealth_nuig

[PestMan_NUIG @PestMan_NUIG]

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 https://t.co/fRwO6U9ke4 for further info on method. @EPAResearchNews

[PestMan_NUIG @PestMan_NUIG]

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. @EPAResearchNews @TeagascACP @RyanInstitute @GENE_NUIG @ResearchatNUIG

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 :-) : https://t.co/W45FOKrPPE @onehealth_nuig @EPAResearchNews

[PestMan_NUIG @PestMan_NUIG]

The use of the @EPAResearchNews Maps app to help identify the potential locations of our #pesticide interventions. You can see a demonstration here: https://t.co/NFge1RznD8 @TeagascACP @onehealth_nuig

[PestMan_NUIG @PestMan_NUIG]

Scouting locations for placing our interventions for #pesticide remediation in two catchments today. Installation in early 2022! @almasiggins @EPAIreland @agriculture_ie @TeagascACP
