Environmental #biologist with a 💙 for aquatic #ecotoxicology 🌊PhD'ing in the prevalence, fate and effects of micronized rubber in the aquatic #environment 🌍
Such a nice experience! As one dare only say when it is all passed.. 🥳 and yes, a huge thank you to my supervisors @frkhan_ecotox, Annemette, Kristoffer and the committee for really good questions and a nice discussion! 🎓 @nannahartmann@FrederikDiness and Claudia Halsband ..🚙
Tire wear particles (TWP) is an important souce of #plasticpollution and #chemical pollution. Current regulations is insufficient. In our new paper we address the regulation of TWP. Thanks for leading this @louilynn.

Coranapandemien har skabt store problemer og forsinkelser for vækstlaget i dansk forskning. Vi i @DetUngeAkademi argumenterer i @Altingetdk for at finde en bedre model til at støtte phds og postdocs, så de kan færdiggøre deres projekter.

New study describes analytical method that can contribute to scientific understanding of the potential contribution of tire & road wear particles (TRWP) among the loading of microparticles in the environment

@wastefreephd Minus 6 days of funding here.. 😅 the uncertainty is worst but it is ok all in all, I have no doubt things will pan out. Somehow. Eventually.
@fiske_cecilie Very interesting, thanks for sharing! Such a dichotomy to do polymer research whilst using it in bulk 😅Always better to practice what you preach ♻️
I never thought my #microrubber journey would somehow lead me to... wait for it... cucumbers..! 🥒
This will be my must-read for the afternoon tea, just because I simply have to know.

Analysis: Calls for emissions regulations to consider lifetime impact
In normal driving we see tyre particle emissions of ~75mg/km, compared to <<1mg/km tailpipe.
A more holistic view of vehicle impacts is needed. There is no zero emission vehicle.

The misalignment of your wheels can cause uneven and rapid tread wear.

..Just highlighting the need to recognize that TWPs exist simultaneously as waterborne contaminants that leaches a suite of chemicals and as anthropogenic particulates that are consumed.. on a Wednesday when our newest paper was accepted 🎉 #tire#tyre

Tire analysis using PYR GC-MS is not straightforward, but has great potential! See the paper «Challenges with Quantifying Tire Road Wear Particles: Recognizing the Need for Further Refinement of the ISO Technical Specification» @ElvisOkoffo@NIVAforskning https://t.co/c2x5FnAIlR
🚙 Ended 2020 with a popular scientific article on my research and how the pandemic affected the work and life of PhD students in the magazine @ForskerforumDk (only in Danish)

@tttonytian @ScienceMagazine Congratulations! I will look forward to read the full paper in detail. Did you test the effects of other PPDs too or was 6PPD the primary toxicant of concern? It will be interesting to follow the continued development in toxicity of different substances related to TWPs.
Tire wear particles are abundant and ubiquitous, but what are the consequences? and what can we do about it? Check out this insightful article in @csmonitor by @BylineLindsey featuring me, and some truly innovative work by @Tyre_Collective https://t.co/5DNCb7XYbb
