Forensic experts @StaffsUni @FCNnetwork are developing a new system which could revolutionise how evidence is used in #domesticviolence #sexualassault #VAWG cases. It's hoped this will provide crucial forensic information and lead to more prosecutions bit.ly/3oFAtl8

Microplastic pollution has been discovered in air, seawater, sediment and sea ice in the Antarctic. @StaffsUni Professor Claire Gwinnett helped to forensically analyse the samples collected by scientists from @UniofOxford and @nektonmission. Find out more ⬇️
#Microplastic pollution discovered to be airborne in #Antarctic with textile #fibres travelling by air from southern South America - @FrontMarineSci Here's more about our research using #CSI #forensics & air current modelling ⬇️ (part 1/2)

And what a great day it was! Thank you @InsideNatGeo and @EVNautilus for organising this amazing expedition! @StaffsResearch @StaffsUniNews
The @InsideNatGeo research teams are getting ready for their first full day of field work on this leg of the #FromShoretotheAbyss program under this glorious rainbow. 🌈

It's a little later for our European collaborators but we would love you to join us at 7pm UK time on the 11th October to hear about our new project #CSIfortheocean project live from @EVNautilus @StaffsUniNews @StaffsUniJSS
The “CSI For the Ocean'' panel will explain the dangers of #plasticpollution to #marineenvironments and how #citizenscientists can be involved in mapping and monitoring #microplastic pollution. @InsideNatGeo
As the start of our #Fromshoretotheabyss expedition nears, take a look at this short video to see what these 3 @NatGeo expeditions are all about! youtu.be/6oAwv97sadQ

It was a pleasure to host @AshleyJBaptiste in our forensic labs to film the BBCs Expert Witness! I think I've convinced him that hair evidence is amazing! @StaffsUniNews
A deep dive into forensics for today’s filming. Excited for people to see this new BBC series. 👌🏽

The Wildlife Forensic Academy (buff.ly/3skuAZa) Grand Opening is almost here! #Wildlife forensic best practices are not the norm in #Africa (and beyond). The Academy and its new facility will help catch more wildlife criminals: buff.ly/30NEKa2. #wildlifecrime

It was an absolute pleasure having the chance to discuss microplastic issues with the likes of @ProfRThompson @MarineSteph and @wastefreephd for the creation of this by the @RoySocChem
In collaboration with @RoySocChem, @StaffsUni @StaffsMicro Professor Claire Gwinnett joins other #microplastic experts to explore the issues and key questions about microplastics. Find out more here: rsc.org/new-perspectives/sus… #CCJS

#microplastics keep turning up. In fact, they have been found almost everywhere scientists have looked for them, from sea ice to human tissue. But where do they come from, how do they reach the environment, and how can we prevent this contamination? | #plasticpollution [1/4]
A huge thank you for inviting me to be part of this first of its kind study! This study shows a clear link between agro-plastics and soil pollution! @StaffsResearch @StaffsUniJSS
