📍The Impact of Federal Science Layoffs: A Call to Action
The ongoing layoffs of our colleagues and friends at NSF, NIH, EPA, USDA, HHS, USGS, and NOAA are not just a blow to the U.S. scientific endeavor—they are a direct hit to the careers of countless scientists, toxicologists,

Quagga and zebra (aka Dreissenid) mussels can have drastically different impacts on food webs depending on where they invade - not a "one size fits all" invader
W Lake Erie --> increase in summer cyanobacteria/algae blooms
S Lake Michigan --> disappearance of spring diatom bloom
W Lake Erie --> increase in summer cyanobacteria/algae blooms
S Lake Michigan --> disappearance of spring diatom bloom
Invasive quagga and zebra mussels have disrupted the food web in parts of the Grest Lakes, diverting nutrients away from planktivorous fishes, thereby "making it extremely difficult for whitefish to reach adulthood in Lake Michigan and Huron".

"A crisis": Lake whitefish survey paints an even more dire picture
One scientist thinks lake whitefish could disappear from certain parts of the Great Lakes within the next five years.

Delighted to share PhD student Di Wu's paper - published now in J. Hazardous Materials.
Our results highlight the gender-specific toxicity of polystyrene microplastics to zebrafish health - female zebrafish are more affected than males 🐟 Check it out here 👇 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
