1/Today, doubts were expressed about the negative impacts of #microplastics. We invite #INC4 delegates to consult the ToMEx tool created by scientists to inform the development of health-based thresholds to support California legislations on water quality.

We have 4 PhD positions open in #microplastics, #nanoplastics, plastic additives, and modelling. Deadline approaching!!!
Have a look, starting with PhD1 😉- nanoplastics!

Our paper is out in Micro & #Nanoplastics! Bayesian species sensitivity distribution (#SSD) modeling for #microplastics by considering e.g., particle size and shape based on #ecotox data available in

In short, we need more data... So ToMex 2.0?

Happy to host today Dr. Scott Coffin @DrSCoffin in our #CRC1357 Microplastics Seminar @unibt. Really exciting work to tackle the question how much #microplastic particles can we have in our drinking water? And the value of #opendata to realize a project like @ToMExApp.

I personally think this is the biggest shift in MP research right now - not to say we shouldn’t continue with experiments. We need data, but let’s also build more data repositories like @ToMExApp

@CUSPResearch studies the health effects of micro- and nanoplastics 🧴🍼🥤
One of its projects @imptox looks at the effects of exposure to #MNPs on asthma and allergic diseases!

🤯A HUGE thank you to the 67 contributors from 14 countries❣️who have more than DOUBLED the data in ToMEx 2.0. That's 287 aquatic studies, and 77 mammalian studies = nearly 20,000 data points!
The updated database will be exclusively available to contributors until Fall, 2023.
