Hi, Iβm Jack (@MinniePlastique) and for my #phd I am looking at #microplastic contamination of the marine nearshore environments of #SouthGeorgia. This includes assessing background environmental levels of plastic as well as its movement through the foodweb

Hey, I'm @jessjanehurley! My research is focusing on the consequences of #microplastic ingestion by marine organisms (ploychaetes, molluscs and crustaceans) - from biomarkers to physiological and behavioural responses!
We are a group of researchers from @EEIatHull@UniOfHull investigating everything to do with #plasticpollution from Antarctica to the Mekong! Follow us to keep updated on our work. Over the next few weeks we will be introducing ourselves π First up is @jessjanehurley
My lab based project will involve subjecting aquatic organisms to multiple stressors including micro plastics. I am currently conducting a desk based literature search and starting to outline various small laboratory experiments @victoriafscott_#IWD2020#WomenInSTEM
My first step is to specify key species in the coastal food web at potential risk of microplastic ingestion. A Hessle foreshore visit was the perfect opportunity to get a little muddy and take some sediment cores for microplastic analysis in the lab. @FeeTenbrink#IWD2020

Nice surprise in my mail box: my @NatureClimate publication, one of my greatest achievements so far, in print! It's just this little bit more real on paper. #proud#paperlover Want to know more about our findings? Come to @thedeephull this half term!
