Former PhD at ETH on volatile Se species

[Zoé Le Bras @zoelbrs]

My first PhD chapter is out! 🥳🎉✍️

Here is an overview of the method we have developed in @ETH_IEG and applied during a cruise in the Baltic and North Seas to quantify volatile Se compounds in water and atmospheric samples: https://t.co/Ezsrzyax1W

Thank FMI &UHEL for the organisation of the 3rd @RI_URBANS scientific meeting. Plenty of good results for assessing air quality policies with advanced parameters in collaboration with @ACTRISRI and @IAGOS_RI

[Zoé Le Bras @zoelbrs]

@abililily @Judith_Giessen @BiogeoMPIBremen Congrats for your thesis !

[Dave Ridley @DavidARidley]

Benzene concentrations and cancer risk in California over 30 years. Public data that doesn't get used anywhere near enough. A great success story. We should have a journal for single figure papers (something @jesse_kroll and @coletteheald wanted, right?!) @DataIsBeautiful

[Zoé Le Bras @zoelbrs]

Delighted to have been able to attend the first in-person ACTRIS conference as part of the CiGas CH team and to meet the different collaborators. Now, filled with science to continue (O)VOCs monitoring in Switzerland.

[ACTRIS @ACTRISRI]

🙏 A heartfelt thank you to each and every participant who contributed to making this conference a resounding success! Until we meet again at the next #ACTRISScienceConference in 2026, let's keep exploring, discovering, and innovating! 🌟

@e_calamita @riwoolway @CAlbergel @esaclimate @EawagResearch @aslo_org Congrats ! Very nice data viz 🤩

[Zoé Le Bras @zoelbrs]

@CarlotaRGazulla Congrats !!! Enjoy your defense day 🎊

[Zoé Le Bras @zoelbrs]

Happy to share that I successfully defended my thesis last week about methylated volatile selenium species in marine systems.

#Sewillwait but publications are in preparation!

From February 2024, I will continue doing analytical development for climate gases at Empa. 🥼👩🏻‍💻🇨🇭

[Dr Lars-Eric Heimbürger-Boavida @LarsEric_Hg]

Mark the date. This Friday 15 December 8AM at @MIOceanologie #PhD defense of Javier Tesan on #mercury uptake into #plankton

[Martí Galí Tàpias (he/him) 🦠🌍 @gatamagat]

New paper out! Great piece of work by Guillaume Le Gland @simolab_ , making the most of a mesocosm experiment to shed light on marine methyl-sulfur cycling

[CMOS-SCMO @CMOS_SCMO]

Learn about the atmospheric cycling of selenium, an essential dietary nutrient, from @paul_a_heine and @nadineborduas in our newest article!

@Sneha_agg @MattESalter @balticseacentre @YouTube Looking forward for the first results !

[Martí Galí Tàpias (he/him) 🦠🌍 @gatamagat]

Come work with us on the biogeochemistry of climate-changing volatile sulfur compounds! 🌊🦠

Great science, colleagues and work/life environment

[Zoé Le Bras @zoelbrs]

Nice work on methylated selenium species! Congrats @nadineborduas and @paul_a_heine 🎉👏🏻

[Nadine Borduas-Dedekind @nadineborduas]

Is Se the new S in #atmoschem?
@paul_a_heine & I have been interested in the atmospheric fate of methylated selenium. We used the Vocus @AerodyneRes @tofwerk to follow ozonolysis kinetics, products & beautiful isotopic patterns. In @EnvSciTech #NBDgroup https://t.co/4PxsDUX3f9

[Zoé Le Bras @zoelbrs]

Great job!!

[IEG group at ETH @ETH_IEG]

Now, David Haaf is presenting his poster on using machine learning to study arsenic in groundwater 😃 (#434)

[Zoé Le Bras @zoelbrs]

New publication on Se is out! Great job 👏🏻👏🏻

[Nadine Borduas-Dedekind @nadineborduas]

Did you know that Se is an essential nutrient? That precipitation is an important source of Se to soils?
Se is in PM2.5, and here's the #NBDGroup's contribution led by @isabellelao1 on atmospheric Se seasonality now in @EnvSciTech: https://t.co/eBru1NheGL

[Zoé Le Bras @zoelbrs]

@FeinbergAri My partner went through this a few months ago... Good luck!!
