Man, this is hard. I truly admired and respected Joel, both as a person and a scientist. My heart goes out to his family, his group, and anyone who knew him and considered him a friend.

[Pedersen Lab @PedersenLab]

We are heartbroken over the passing of our advisor, Joel. Here is the link to the memorial website, where you can read memories of Joel and support his family. https://t.co/e3ljkhzxoz

Really looking forward to this! Abstract submissions have been extended to April 25. This is going to be a great conference with great talks in a great city! How much have I overused the word great here? Greatly. But still - Check it out!

[Nathalie Tufenkji @TufenkjiLab]

Abstract submission is open for the 15th International Conference on the Environmental Effects of Nanomaterials and Nanoparticles. Join us in Montreal this August! Plenary speakers @DeniseMitrano @iseult5 @GossPhysTox and Jamie Lead https://t.co/3CpuqCg9Mr

I’m a little late to the party, but man I’m happy to have been a small part of this. Congrats to @LapointeMathie2 @TufenkjiLab @HeidiJahandideh

The impact of covid on gaming and hospitality (looking at you, Vegas) makes sense to me, but I hadn’t thought through what happens when those are important drivers for things like healthcare as for many indigenous communities. Really interesting article from @laurelbethw

[Laurel Wheeler @laurelbethw]

COVID-19 threatens to undermine an industry responsible for economic growth in many Indigenous communities. In a new blog post, I discuss the implications of COVID-19 for the Indigenous gaming industry. #CriticalGambling

@marinavance Exactly. I’ve given up today. No way I can focus on a lecture right now

[Jeff Farner @JeffFarner]

This is disgusting. This is horrifying. Sadly, this is not surprising

[Adam Kinzinger @RepKinzinger]

This is a coup attempt.

[Jeff Farner @JeffFarner]

@LapointeMathie2 @PresseCan @LP_LaPresse @TufenkjiLab @MitacsCanada @KemiraGroup Yeah! Congrats!

[Jeff Farner @JeffFarner]

@elvisgbxu @LimnoPlast @ProfRThompson @NATsdu Right here with you, only an ocean away, ha! Very interesting talk

[Jeff Farner @JeffFarner]

I ordered some CuO nanoparticles, and this is how they were packaged. Is this @sigmaaldrich messing with me? They’re not wrong tho.

[Jeff Farner @JeffFarner]

Great opportunity here to work with some awesome people! Also, glad to see the emphasis on EDI.

[Jeff Farner @JeffFarner]

Really nice discussion that highlights how the oversimplification of a family of materials to just “microplastics” can work against us.

[Denise Mitrano @DeniseMitrano]

(Micro)plastic is a global threat, and policy hurdles and lack of effective substitutes contribute to the problem. In this perspective, we argue that specific restrictions and regulations should be optimized for impact and efficacy https://t.co/aMssz6fWVb

@recklesseng @UAlberta_Eng Congrats to you as well, then! It’s the start of a long, but, in my experience, very rewarding journey. The biggest thing is just to keep showing up and moving forward
