Our paper “Accumulation and depuration of microplastic fibers, fragments, and tire particles in the eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica…” was selected as one of ⁦@NIEHS⁩ papers of the month! ⁦@ErtelBonnie⁩ ⁦@weinstein_lab⁩ https://t.co/kjHmODbgvg

Great night with @ShannonBley sharing our #microplastic science with educators at the #REconnectSymposium hosted by @SCSeaGrant and @SCaquarium. It’s all about salt and sieves (and, density matters!)

[Austin D. Gray, Ph.D. @austin_doug13]

Congrats to @ErtelBonnie from the @weinstein_lab on her first publication, published in Environmental Pollution! awesome work and collaboration using a toxicokinetic approach to understand microplastic uptake and depuration in oysters @ecotoxicology https://t.co/6SX4svua66

Congrats to my friend and mentor Dr. John Weinstein @weinstein_lab for receiving the prestigious Governor’s Award for Excellence in Scientific Research at a Predominantly Undergraduate Institution (PUI). Myself like others wouldn’t be where we are today without his mentorship.

Had a great time at the @CSETAC regional meeting! Honored to be invited back as the keynote speaker. It was a great meeting and was awesome seeing awesome friends like @TubertyShea, introducing #VTStreamteam student Cameron to SETAC, and @weinstein_lab mixing with the #GrayLab

[Bonnie Ertel @ErtelBonnie]

never could have imagined being invited to share research at an International Summit on Plastic Pollution, thank you @weinstein_lab and @GCSEglobal for the amazing opportunity!

Finished our second round of sampling 8 beaches throughout the SE Atlantic for #plasticlitter. Now onto the data analysis and comparison with French colleagues…

Four years, 20+ researchers, >300 samples, and 33,000 MP particles later, our San Francisco Bay study is published! https://t.co/abFCUDaaMk Many papers came out of this project, including a microfiber identification method https://t.co/sQFjggLfRz 😊

[Bonnie Ertel @ErtelBonnie]

Glad to be part of this conversation about plastics in the lowcountry! Here, I give an overview of #microplastics and share what I’ve been up to lately with the @weinstein_lab

[Dr. Barbara Beckingham @babeckingham]

Fun part of including golf course ponds in our study design: transporting field equipment by golf carts! The view of Charleston Harbor wasn’t bad either. @weinstein_lab @_JoshuaRobinson

[Weinstein Lab @weinstein_lab]

We’ll be there!

[Dr. Barbara Beckingham @babeckingham]

Doing research related to tire particles? We’re organizing a SETAC session for that, where the rubber meets the road! 👇
